A 62-year-old female patient with chronic medical history of DM and hypertension was admitted due to traffic accident. She was asymptomatic until 5 days before admission. She was referred to our medical center with an abdominal CT revealing left renal tumor. The diameter of the renal mass was 50 mm. On ultrasonographic examination, a heterogenous lesion over the left kidney was noted. Renal scanning showed a cold nodule in the left kidney. Hand-assisted laparoscopic transperitoneal radical nephrectomy was performed smoothly. The kidney was removed from the hand port in the supraumbilical skin incision with a volume of 14 x 7 x 6 cm3 and weight of 570 gm. The operation time was 5 hours, blood loss was 200 cc, and no significant change of blood pressure was noted during the surgery. The patient's postoperative course was uneventful. The pathological report of this mass was renal cell carcinoma.
