  • We performed a systematic review and meta-analysis of partial vs radical nephrectomy for localized renal tumors, considering all cause and cancer specific mortality, and severe chronic kidney disease. (nih.gov)
  • Retroperitoneal versus transperitoneal laparoscopic partial nephrectomy: A systematic review and meta-analysis. (jkcvhl.com)
  • Lastly, multilocular cystic renal cell carcinomas usually have an excellent prognosis. (urotoday.com)
  • 95%) necrosis may imply better short term prognosis after adjusting for tumour pathological TNM stage, it is probably not a prognostic variable in RCC. (bmj.com)
  • in addition to metastatic prostate cancer, this combination is also being studied in advanced lung cancer, ovarian cancer, and triple-negative breast cancer, as well as across solid tumors with certain biomarkers. (merck.com)
  • However, it is still difficult to create a bloodless operating space and to remove multiple tumors with LPN. (nih.gov)
  • however on the other hand, the amount of residual healthy renal parenchyma strongly depends on the tumour size and location. (amedi.sk)
  • Post-contrast abdomen CT ( Fig. 2 ) showed left renal well-defined partially exophytic midzonal soft tissue mass completely separable from the surrounding organs measuring 5.5 × 4.8 × 4.4 cm. (wjoes.com)
  • It has been estimated that 73,800 new cases of cancers of the kidney and renal pelvis will be diagnosed in the United States in 2020 and that 14,800 people will die of them [ 1 ]. (biomedcentral.com)
  • Appropriately, this is necessary for patients with a solitary kidney, hereditary syndrome, known bilateral tumors, and significant chronic renal disease. (iospress.com)
  • As the name suggests , hereditary leiomyomatosis and renal cell cancer (HLRCC) is a disorder of genetic origin that predisposes for the development of leiomyomas and malignant neoplasms of the kidney. (symptoma.com)
  • Prolonged renal ischemia may lead to irreversible nephron damage in the remaining tissue and, ultimately, chronic kidney disease. (hindawi.com)
  • Beyond this period, critical ischemia ensues, where renal cells are irreversibly injured, eventually resulting in nephron loss and chronic kidney disease in 5-17% patients [ 4 ]. (hindawi.com)
  • According to the recent literature data, the calculated percentage/volume of the renal remnant is an important risk factor in developing of chronic kidney disease. (amedi.sk)
