Objectives Simple nephrectomies can be challenging with significant morbidity. To prove the hypothesis of “not‐so‐simple” nephrectomy, we compared demographics, perioperative outcomes, and complications between simple radical nephrectomy in a tertiary referral center. Methods We analyzed 473 consecutive (January 2018–October 2020) 2016–October 2020). Univariate multivariate analysis outcomes utilized Mann–Whitney U test, Chi‐squared Mantel–Haenszel test trend, multiple linear regression....
