To compare changes in renal function after radical nephrectomy for renal cell carcinoma (RCC) and radical nephroureterectomy for upper tract urothelial carcinoma (UTUC), and assess their effects on non–cancer-specific mortality (CSM).Clinicopathologic data from 1114 patients with RCC or UTUC treated surgically from 1997 to 2013 were compiled. Patients who underwent nephron-sparing surgeries, had bilateral...
To evaluate kidney function preservation or regeneration and pathological changes post-irreversible electroporation (IRE) in comparison with partial nephrectomy and radiofrequency ablation (RFA) in a solitary kidney porcine model. Tissue ablation using IRE has been reported to spare critical anatomic structures within or near the ablation zone with associated regeneration of adjacent parenchyma, possibly...
The overall incidence of pulmonary metastasis of T1 renal cell carcinoma is low. We evaluated the usefulness of chest x-rays based on the current AUA (American Urological Association) guidelines and NCCN Guidelines® for T1a renal cell carcinoma surveillance.Between 2006 and 2012, 258 patients with T1a renal cell carcinoma were treated with partial nephrectomy, radical nephrectomy or radio frequency...
Larger size and clear cell histopathology are associated with worse outcomes for malignant renal tumors treated with radio frequency ablation. We hypothesize that greater tumor enhancement may be a risk factor for radio frequency ablation failure due to increased vascularity.A retrospective review of patients who underwent radio frequency ablation for renal tumors with contrast enhanced imaging available...
