• In porcine model, compared renal scarring with 11 Fr versus 30 Fr renal access tracts
• Renal units harvested six weeks after perc access
• No difference in scarring: Mean estimated scar volume of the 30 and 11Fr tracts was 0.29 and 0.40 cc, which translates into a mean fractional loss of parenchyma of 0.63% and 0.91%, respectively (p not significant).
