Background: Robot-assisted partial nephrectomy (RAPN) is increasingly being employed in the management of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) and it expanding field complex tumors. The aim this systematic review was to consolidate assess results RAPN when dealing with entirely central hilar masses examine various methods used address surgical difficulties associated them. Methods: A thorough literature search September 2023 across databases focused on for masses, adhering PRISMA guidelines. primary...
Background: Upper tract urothelial carcinoma (UTUC) is a rare disease with potentially dismal prognosis. We systematically compared international guidelines on UTUC to analyze similitudes and differences among them. Methods: conducted search MEDLINE/PubMed for related from 2010 the present. In addition, we manually explored websites of urological oncological societies journals identify pertinent guidelines. also assessed recommendations International Bladder Cancer Network, Canadian...
The excision of the renal tumor with a substantial margin healthy parenchyma is considered gold standard technique for partial nephrectomy. However, simple enucleation showed excellent results in some retrospective series. We compared oncologic outcomes after nephrectomy and enucleation.We retrospectively analyzed 982 patients who underwent 537 had localized cell carcinoma at 16 academic centers between 1997 2007. Local recurrence, cancer specific survival progression-free were main this...
Abstract BACKGROUND The objective of the current study was to identify independent clinical and pathologic variables that were predictive lymph node involvement in patients with squamous cell carcinoma penis a multicenter series intent select who suitable undergo immediate inguinal lymphadenectomy. METHODS Data analyzed from 175 underwent surgery for penile 11 urologic centers participating Gruppo Uro‐Oncologico del Nord‐Est (Northeast Uro‐Oncological Group) Penile Cancer Base....
Study Type – Therapy (cohort) Level of Evidence 2b What's known on the subject? and What does study add? Few studies supported expanded indications for nephron‐sparing surgery (NSS) in selected patients with 4.1 cm renal tumours size range (T1b). However, all these comparative included both imperative elective partial nephrectomy patient selection analysis was based pathological stage (pT1) not clinical (cT1). Patients clinically organ‐confined RCC (cT1) who are candidates PN have a limited...
Objectives To assess the prognostic impact of time to recurrence ( TTR ) on cancer‐specific survival CSS after in patients with renal cell carcinoma RCC undergoing radical nephrectomy or nephron‐sparing surgery. analyse differences clinical and histopathological criteria between early late recurrence. Patients Methods Of 13 107 from an international multicentre database, 1712 developed follow‐up FU ), at a median (interquartile range) 50.1 (25–106) months. In all, 1402 had ≤5 years (Group A)...
Formalin-fixed tissues represent the most abundant clinical material for retrospective studies. However, formalin highly affects macromolecules, impairing their extraction and analysis. In this study, suitability of some potential substitutes RNA-based applications has been considered. Conventional was compared with methacarn commercial FineFIX. Their impact on overall RNA preservation investigated in a cell line-based model fixed during time course treatment series human tissues. yield...
In prostate adenocarcinoma, the dissection of expression behaviour eukaryotic elongation factors (eEF1A1/2) has not yet fully elucidated.The EEF1A1/A2 expressions were investigated by real-time PCR, western blotting (cytoplasmic and cytoskeletal/nuclear-enriched fractions) immunofluorescence in androgen-responsive LNCaP non-responsive DU-145 PC-3 cells, displaying a low, moderate high aggressive phenotype, respectively. Targeted experiments also conducted 22Rv1, cell line marking progression...
BACKGROUND: The aim of this study is to evaluate the perioperative and long-term functional outcomes laparoscopic (LPN) robot-assisted partial nephrectomy (RAPN) in comparison radical (LRN) obese patients diagnosed with renal cell carcinoma.METHODS: Clinical data 4325 consecutive from Italian REgistry COnservative Radical Surgery for cortical tumor Disease (RECORD 2 Project) were gathered. Only treated transperitoneal LPN, RAPN, or LRN Body Mass Index (BMI) ≥30 kg/m2, clinical T1...
Our aim is to evaluate the association between body mass index (BMI) and preoperative total testosterone (TT) levels with risk of single multiple metastatic lymph node invasion (LNI) in prostate cancer patients undergoing radical prostatectomy extended pelvic dissection. Preoperative BMI, basal TT, prostate-specific antigen (PSA) were evaluated 361 consecutive dissection 2014 2017. Patients grouped into either nonmetastatic, one, or more than one groups. The among clinical factors LNI was...
Abstract Background Aim of this study was to evaluate and compare perioperative outcomes transperitoneal (TP) retroperitoneal (TR) approaches in a multi-institutional cohort minimally invasive partial nephrectomy (MI-PN). Material methods All consecutive patients undergone MI-PN for clinical T1 renal tumors at 26 Italian centers (RECORd2 project) between 01/2013 12/2016 were evaluated, collecting the pre-, intra-, postoperative data. The then stratified according surgical approach, TP or RP....
Partial nephrectomy (PN) has become the standard of treatment for most T1 renal masses and is suitable selected T2 cortical masses. In this setting, management complex (CRM) requires a thorough understanding potential risks benefits both PN radical (RN). Indeed, thanks to advent robotic surgery, indications have expanded include larger tumors CRM, despite associated surgical complexity oncologic risks. The decision-making process CRM with or RN complex. Thus, current review aims explore...
