| Abstract |
Renal artery vasospasm can be a troublesome complication during robot-assisted laparoscopic partial nephrectomy. Urologists performing this procedure, especially if utilizing selective arterial vascular microdissection, should be aware of using papaverine for both prevention and treatment of renal artery vasospasm. We present a 33-year-old male who developed severe renal artery vasospasm just with hilar dissection causing the kidney to become ischemic. Papaverine was topically applied on the renal arteries resulting in vasodilation and reperfusion of the kidney. Our objective of this report is to raise awareness of this complication as well as to review the literature on periarterial papaverine use and the dosing for topical applications. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 2. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 30 April 2017.
All research outputs
#13,856,443
of 22,968,808 outputs
Outputs from Journal of Robotic Surgery
#305
of 688 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#163,948
of 310,521 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Journal of Robotic Surgery
#5
of 14 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,968,808 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 38th percentile – i.e., 38% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 688 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 3.7. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 53% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 310,521 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 46th percentile – i.e., 46% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 14 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 64% of its contemporaries.
