Hi @cando63, I think @granny50846 @trishanna @nnimblett may have experience to share about recovery after a partial nephrectomy. I'm not sure if they had the robotic assisted version, however.

I also checked a few trusted websites and see that after surgery it is expected that you'll stay 1 to 3 days before being discharged. If you are going home same day, do you have someone to stay with you overnight?

I will check the links you included. I will have my wife with me if sent home the same day. The soonest release period that I have come across in my research so far was POD 1 ( 24 hrs. After procedure). Still a little nervous about the 3-4 hrs. Post surgery release time. But, I do trust my surgeon. Thank you for your quick response!
