Testicular germ cell tumors (TGCTs) are relatively common in young men, making accurate diagnosis and prognosis assessment essential. MicroRNAs (miRNAs), including microRNA-371a-3p (miR-371a-3p), have shown promise as biomarkers for TGCTs. This review discusses the recent advancements use of miRNA TGCTs, with a focus on challenges surrounding noninvasive detection teratomas. Circulating miR-371a-3p, which is expressed undifferentiated TGCTs but not teratomas, promising biomarker Its serum,...
Abstract BACKGROUND Although many studies support the life‐saving potential of screening mammography, actual utilization and impact pattern use on breast carcinoma death rate, remain incompletely understood. In current report, authors describe patterns among women who were examined at a large diagnostic service estimate added mortality associated with missed mammograms. METHODS Mammography was assessed in population 72,417 received total 254,818 mammograms Massachusetts General Hospital...
Abstract BACKGROUND The objective of this study was to describe the pattern screening utilization and its consequences in terms tumor size time appearance invasive breast carcinoma among a population women who were examined at large service screening/diagnostic program over last decade. METHODS Utilization mammography assessed from 59,899 received 196,891 mammograms Massachusetts General Hospital Breast Imaging Division January 1, 1990 March 1999, which 604 tumors found. Two hundred six...
BACKGROUND: Utility of partial nephrectomy (PN) for complex renal mass (CRM) is controversial. We determined the impact surgical modality on postoperative functional outcomes CRM.METHODS: retrospectively analyzed a multicenter registry (ROSULA). CRM was defined as RENAL Score 10-12. The cohort divided into PN and radical (RN) analyses. Primary outcome development de-novo estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR)<45 mL/min/1.73 m2. Secondary were eGFR<60 ΔeGFR between diagnosis last...
The role of kidney-sparing surgery in patients with high-risk upper urinary tract urothelial carcinoma is controversial. present study aimed to assess oncological and functional outcomes robot-assisted distal ureterectomy ureteral tumors.
Objectives: The incidence of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) has been rising, largely due to increased incidental detection from widespread imaging. Although synchronous distant metastasis (SM) with a primary tumor measuring <4 cm (cT1a) is uncommon, its presence may influence survival outcomes and the utility cytoreductive nephrectomy. We sought investigate clinical characteristics, metastatic patterns, treatments, patients T1a RCC. Methods: All aged ≥18 years diagnosed RCC between 2004 2019...
513 Background: The incidence of RCC has been rising, largely due to increased incidental detection from widespread imaging. Although SM with a primary renal tumor measuring <4 cm (cT1a) is uncommon, its presence may influence survival outcomes and utility cytoreductive nephrectomy. We sought examine trends, metastatic patterns, treatments cT1a SM. Methods: All cases (age ≥ 18 years), diagnosed between 2004-2019, were extracted the NCDB. Cochran-Armitage test was utilized for trend...
519 Background: Positive surgical margins (PSM) are associated with worsened survival outcomes in Renal Cell Carcinoma (RCC). Current AUA guidelines recommend intensified post-surgical follow-up and clinical vigilance patients PSM. We sought to evaluate of different RCC-histologies microscopic-PSM. Methods: performed a retrospective analysis undergoing partial nephrectomy (PN) or radical (RN) for RCC who had The cohort was divided according RCC-Histology [Chromophobe-RCC (chRCC); Clear...
515 Background: While immunotherapy has become first-line treatment for metastatic renal cell carcinoma in both clear (ccRCC) and non-clear (nccRCC) histologies, there been limited investigation into adjuvant therapies nccRCC the context of high-risk localized RCC. As Pembrolizumab is being more commonly employed non-metastatic ccRCC, its application remains less understood. This study aims to compare survival outcomes between patients with ccRCC nccRCC, focusing on cancer-specific (CSS)...
527 Background: Patients presenting with symptomatic renal cell carcinoma (RCC) tend to have more aggressive disease and poorer prognosis. Paraneoplastic syndromes (PNS), manifesting as atypical symptoms or abnormal laboratory values, are similarly associated worse outcomes. However, the impact of PNS on prognosis remains unclear. The aim this study is develop a Symptomatic Score (PNSS) better predict by considering clinical presentation presence at diagnosis. Methods: Prospectively...
621 Background: Testicular cancer is one of the most common and curable malignancies in young men, with a 5 year survival rate 95%. Limited research has explored long-term outcomes among Black given rarity disease this demographic. Our study aims to assess potential racial differences overall (OS) cancer-specific mortality (CSM) testicular patients using large, equal access nationwide Veterans Affairs (VA) database, focusing on self-identified White race. Methods: This retrospective analyzed...
Subcentimeter pulmonary nodules (SPN) found in clinical stage I (CS I) seminoma may be early metastases or incidental, benign entities that lead to patient anxiety and overtreatment. This study aims demonstrate the incidence natural history of SPN CS patients. A retrospective reviewing medical records patients treated at UC San Diego Health between 2003 2023. Data collection included demographics, serum tumor markers (STM), imaging reports, pathologic findings, treatment records, disease...
