Abstract: Since September 2000, laparoscopy-assisted live donor nephreetomieswere performed on 70 donors,We selected a retroperitoneal ap proach because of less invasiveness and fewer perioperative bewel complications than a transperitoneal approach,Moreover, a gasless procedure was chosen to achieve good urine output by donors, since pneumoperitoneum reduces both renal blood flow and urine output
