With the widespread use of abdominal imaging, there has been a substantial increase in the detection of incidental, small renal masses. This change has resulted in a downward trend in the size and ...
Between 2009 and 2014 in Queensland, Australia, one in three patients whose kidney cancer was managed with radical nephrectomy developed ESKD, while one in 100 patients managed with partial ...
Increased detection of the small renal mass over the last two decades has led to greater utilization of partial nephrectomy techniques. Appreciation of the negative impact of chronic renal impairment ...
In patients with clinical stage 1 (cT1) renal masses, many physicians opt for nephron-sparing surgery, such as partial nephrectomy (PN) versus radical nephrectomy (RN). Both procedures have been shown ...
Nephron-sparing surgery may not reduce the risk for later kidney failure in patients with kidney cancer and stage 4 CKD. Despite the promise of nephron-sparing, new study findings suggest that the ...
Intuitive Surgical ($ISRG) touted a study in Health Affairs which found that its da Vinci surgical robot enables more minimally invasive partial nephrectomies to ...
Renal cell carcinoma with perirenal fat invasion: Is partial nephrectomy as good as radical surgery?
Establishment of patient-derived renal cell carcinoma (RCC) models based on orthotopic xenografts (PDX) and cancer stem cell (CSC) isolation to provide prognostic and predictive information. This is ...
Pleotrophic action of renal cell carcinoma: Dysregulated microRNAs on hypoxia-related signaling pathways. Background: Partial nephrectomy in upper pole kidney tumors represents a distinct surgical ...
Most guidelines still treat indeterminate (Rx) surgical margins after nephrectomy for renal cell carcinoma (RCC) as equivalent to negative (R0) margins, but it is not.
SUNNYVALE, Calif., Feb. 3, 2015 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- A new study, published in the February issue of Health Affairs, found that in terms of quality-adjusted life-years gained, the benefits of ...
December 11, 2014 - Hospitals with robotic surgical systems are more likely to perform "nephron-sparing" partial nephrectomy--a recommended alternative to removal of the entire kidney--in patients ...
New results suggests that conservative surgery is not inferior to radical renal surgery or nephrectomy. The latest results from the European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC) ...
