A new machine-learning model to predict long-term renal function impairment after minimally invasive partial nephrectomy: the Fundació Puigvert predictive model.

We developed a new model to predict long-term renal function impairment after PN where the perioperative loss of renal function plays a pivotal role to predict lack of functional recovery. This model could help identify patients in whom functional follow-up should be intensified to minimize possible worsening factors of renal function.
