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 ...

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 ...

A minimally invasive approach does not increase risk for atypical sites of kidney cancer recurrence, a recent study suggests. Partial nephrectomy for renal cell carcinoma (RCC) with a minimally ...

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 ...

Robotic-assisted partial nephrectomy (RAPN) led to a lower rate of complications compared with open partial nephrectomy (OPN) in patients with intermediate- or high-complexity kidney tumors, the ...

Partial nephrectomy has become the standard of care for small renal masses, with minimally-invasive techniques such as laparoscopic, robotic-assisted and laparoendoscopic single-site surgery (LESS) ...

“The findings of this study provide valuable information for surgical decision-making in patients with localized RCC.” “While both RN and PN demonstrated equivalent and effective cancer control, ...

Long-term durable oncologic outcomes after radiofrequency ablation for T1 renal cell carcinoma. Background: Partial nephrectomy (PN) has reported equivalent oncologic outcomes with superior renal ...

Robotic partial nephrectomy (RPN) has increasingly been applied to the treatment of small renal masses. Because of space limitations and the size of the robot at the patient side, the standard ...
