In a study, partial vs radical cytoreductive nephrectomy for clear cell metastatic renal cell carcinoma was associated with a 54% decreased risk for other-cause mortality. Although novel targeted and ...

Incidental detection has increased with ubiquitous CT/MRI, inflating early-stage ‘small renal mass’ diagnoses and complicating interpretation of a ~5% rise in <50-year incidence. Obesity, hypertension ...

SAN DIEGO -- Use of neoadjuvant axitinib (Inlyta) resulted in significant reductions in tumor size and complexity, enabling partial nephrectomy in a cohort of patients with highly complex renal masses ...

January 10, 2008 — Most patients found to have a small kidney tumor, between 2 and 4 cm in size, have the whole kidney removed. However, new findings suggest that for younger patients a partial ...

Positive surgical margins after partial nephrectomy for RCC independently predict a higher risk for cancer recurrence. Positive surgical margins (PSMs) following partial nephrectomy for renal cell ...

Immune checkpoint inhibitors in the peri-operative setting in renal cell carcinoma: A meta-analysis of the randomized clinical trials. Cabozantinib in combination with atezolizumab in non-clear cell ...

Urological meetings abound with industrial representatives of MIS, and medical centers and hospitals have invested substantial sums to equip operating rooms and train staff to incorporate MIS into ...

The probability of surgical success with telesurgery for radical prostatectomy and partial nephrectomy for small renal masses was non-inferior to local robotic surgery in a small randomized trial. The ...

PN and RFA offer similar survival for cT1a RCC tumors ≤2 cm, but PN is superior for larger tumors. RFA may be considered for elderly patients with comorbidities, especially for tumors ≤2 cm. PN ...

In the treatment of small renal masses, robotic partial nephrectomy (RPN) has a superior morbidity profile compared with laparoscopic partial nephrectomy (LPN), according to an updated meta-analysis ...
