Accurately predicting new baseline glomerular filtration rate (NBGFR) after radical nephrectomy (RN) can improve counseling about RN vs partial nephrectomy. Split renal function (SRF)-based models are optimal, and differential parenchymal volume analysis (PVA) is more accurate than nuclear renal scans (NRS) for this purpose. However, there are minimal data regarding the limitations of PVA. Our objective was to identify patient-/tumor-related factors associated with PVA inaccuracy.
