Long-term results of nephron sparing surgery for localized renal cell carcinoma: 10-year followup

TL;DR: Partial nephrectomy is effective for localized renal cell carcinoma, providing long-term tumor control with preservation of renal function, and was significantly affected by tumor stage, symptoms, tumor laterality and tumor size.
Journal ArticleDOI

Nephron sparing surgery for renal tumors: indications, techniques and outcomes.

TL;DR: Nephron sparing surgery provides effective therapy for patients in whom preservation of renal function is a relevant clinical consideration and a long-term functional advantage gained by the maximal preservation of unaffected renal parenchyma without sacrificing cancer control is suggested.
Journal ArticleDOI

The changing natural history of renal cell carcinoma

TL;DR: The understanding of the natural history of renal cell carcinoma, the role of nephrectomy, the benefits of immunotherapy and the possibilities of new technologies are evolving and being integrated with advances in classification and staging.
Journal ArticleDOI

Prognostic significance of morphologic parameters in renal cell carcinoma.

TL;DR: Nuclear grade and tumour stage were found as the most important prognostic indicators in renal cell carcinoma patients treated with radical nephrectomy between 1985 and 2001.
Journal ArticleDOI

Surveillance after radical or partial nephrectomy for localized renal cell carcinoma and management of recurrent disease.

TL;DR: Proposed surveillance protocols attempt to provide a rational approach to identifying treatable recurrences while minimizing unnecessary examinations and patient anxiety and strict adherence to follow-up guidelines may not be appropriate for all patients.

Disease outcome in patients with low stage renal cell carcinoma treated with nephron sparing or radical surgery

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the outcome of nephron sparing surgery in patients with low grade and low stage (Robson stage II or less) renal cell carcinoma and found no significant difference was observed with respect to progression-free, crude or cancer specific survival between the NE and radical NEphrectomy groups.
Journal ArticleDOI

Nephron sparing surgery in incidental versus suspected renal cell carcinoma.

TL;DR: Specific eligibility criteria for nephron sparing surgery in patients with localized unilateral renal cell carcinoma and a normal contralateral kidney are defined.
Journal ArticleDOI

Long-Term Followup After Surgical Treatment for Renal Cell Carcinoma Extending into the Right Atrium

TL;DR: Long-term survival after surgical treatment is possible in patients with localized renal cell carcinoma extending into the right atrium and the cephalad extent of inferior vena caval involvement does not appear to be prognostically important.
