Objectives To analyze long‐term changes in both kidneys, and to predict renal function and contralateral hypertrophy after robot‐assisted partial nephrectomy. Methods A total of 62 patients underwent robot‐assisted partial nephrectomy, and renal parenchymal volume was calculated using three‐dimensio...
