Fig. 1 PRISMA flow diagram detailing the search strategy and identification of studies used in data synthesis. a Of these 23 studies, in two cases the same group reported two separate analyses for different endpoints (Roos et al [20,21] and Kopp et al [14,23]; see the text).

Fig. 2 Forest plots of surgical outcomes for partial nephrectomy (PN) versus radical nephrectomy (RN) for cT1b and cT2 tumors. Reference numbers for the studies are shown in Table 1. EBL=estimated blood loss; SD=standard deviation; CI=confidence interval.
