## Abstract Twentyβeight partial nephrectomies were performed on nine pigs with a simultaneous, coaxial CO~2~βNd:YAG laser at power settings of 20 W and 40 W, or with a steel scalpel. A vascular pedicle clamp was used without renal cooling. The time for hemostasis was 4.5 Β± 3.2 min (mean Β± SD) with

Partial nephrectomy is effective in the treatment of segmental renal disease but hemostasis remains a challenge. In this preliminary investigation the Nd:YAG laser was used alone or as an adjunct to the scalpel in partial nephrectomies to determine if hemostasis could be improved. A technique of 100
