Abstract
Mannitol for renal protection during partial nephrectomy is common but unsupported by evidence from clinical trials. The impact of mannitol on renal physiology includes both beneficial and harmful effects. Current understanding of renal ischemia reperfusion injury suggests potentially targetable processes that have a lower potential risk.
