Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Lymph node dissection (LND) during radical nephrectomy (RN) for renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is not considered as a standard. The emergence of robot-assisted surgery and effective immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) in recent years may change this and lymph node (LN) staging has become easier and has a clinical impact. In this review, we aimed to reconsider the role of LND today. RECENT FINDINGS Although the extent of LND has still not been well established, removal of more LN seems to provide better oncologic outcomes for a select group of patients with high-risk factors such as clinical T3-4. Adjuvant therapy using pembrolizumab has been shown to improve disease free survival if complete resection of metastatic lesions as well as the primary site is obtained in combination. Robot assisted RN for localized RCC has been widespread and the studies regarding LND for RCC has been recently appeared. SUMMARY The staging and surgical benefits and its extent of LND during RN for RCC remains unclear, but it is becoming increasingly important. Technologies that allow an easier LND and adjuvant ICI that improve survival in LN-positive patients are engaging the role of LND, a procedure that was needed, but almost never done, is now indicated sometimes. Now, the goal is to identify the clinical and molecular imaging tools that can help identify with sufficient accuracy who needs a LND and which LNs to remove in a targeted personalized approach.

Ngai M, Chandrasekar T, Bratslavsky G, Goldberg H. The Current Role of Lymph Node Dissection in Nonmetastatic Localized Renal Cell Carcinoma. J Clin Med 2023; 12:jcm12113732. [PMID: 37297925 DOI: 10.3390/jcm12113732] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/23/2023] [Revised: 05/21/2023] [Accepted: 05/26/2023] [Indexed: 06/12/2023] Open
Abstract
PURPOSE To explore the current role of lymph node dissection (LND) in the management of nonmetastatic localized renal cell carcinoma (RCC). BACKGROUND There is currently no proven benefit of LND in the setting of RCC, and its role remains controversial because of conflicting evidence. Patients who may benefit from LND are those at greatest risk of nodal disease, but the tools used to predict nodal involvement are limited due to unpredictable retroperitoneal lymphatics. The indications, templates, and extent of LND are also not standardized, adding to the ambiguity of current guidelines surrounding its use. EVIDENCE ACQUISITION A PubMed search of the literature from January 2017 to December 2022 was conducted using the search terms "renal cell carcinoma" or "renal cancer" in combination with "lymph node dissection" or "lymphadenectomy". Case studies and editorials were excluded, whereas studies investigating the therapeutic effect of LND were classified as either demonstrating a benefit or no benefit. References of the studies and review articles were also searched for notable studies and findings that were outside the five-year literature search. The studies in this review were restricted to the English language. RESULTS Only a number of studies in recent years have found an association between the extent of LND and increased survival. Most studies do not indicate an associated benefit, and some even suggest a negative effect on survival. Most of these studies are retrospective. CONCLUSION The therapeutic value of LND in RCC is still unclear, and although prospective data are needed, its declining rates and emerging new therapies make this unlikely. A better understanding of renal lymphatics and improved detection of nodal disease may help determine the role of LND in nonmetastatic localized RCC.

Abstract
PURPOSE The KEYNOTE-564 trial showed improved disease-free survival (DFS) for patients with high-risk renal cell carcinoma (RCC) receiving adjuvant pembrolizumab as compared to placebo. However, if systematically administered to all high-risk patients, it might lead to the overtreatment in a non-negligible proportion of patient. Therefore, we aimed to determine the optimal candidate for adjuvant pembrolizumab. METHODS Within a prospectively maintained database we selected patients who fulfilled the inclusion criteria of the KEYNOTE-564. We compared baseline characteristics and oncologic outcomes in this cohort with those of the placebo arm of the KEYNOTE-564. Regression tree analyses was used to generate a risk stratification tool to predict 1-year DFS after surgery. RESULTS In the off-trial setting, patients had worse tumor characteristics then in the KEYNOTE-564 placebo arm, i.e. there were more pT4 (5.4 vs. 2.7%, p = 0.046) and pN1 (15 vs. 6.3%, p < 0.001) cases. Median DFS was 29 (95% CI 21-35) months as compared to value not reached in KEYNOTE-564 and 1-year DFS was 64.2% (95% CI 59.6-69.2) as compared to 76.2% (95% CI 72.2-79.7), respectively. Patients with pN1 were at the highest risk of 1-year recurrence (1-year DFS 28.6% [95% CI 20.2-40.3]); patients without LNI, but necrosis were at intermediate risk (1-year DFS 62.5% [95% CI 56.9-68.8]); those without LNI and necrosis were at the lowest risk (1-year DFS 83.8% [95% CI 79.1-88.9]). LVI substratification furtherly improved the accuracy in the prediction of early recurrence. CONCLUSIONS Patients potentially eligible for adjuvant pembrolizumab have worse characteristics and DFS in the off-trial setting as compared to the placebo arm of the KEYNOTE-564. Patients with either LNI or necrosis were at the highest risk of early-recurrence, which make them the ideal candidate to adjuvant pembrolizumab.

Potential benefit of lymph node dissection during radical nephrectomy for kidney cancer: A review and critical analysis of current literature. Asian J Urol 2022; 9:215-226.

Abstract
Objective The role of lymph node dissection (LND) is still controversial in patients with renal cell carcinoma undergoing surgery. We aimed to provide a comprehensive review of the literature about the effect of LND on survival, prognosis, surgical outcomes, as well as patient selection and available LND templates. Methods Recent literature (from January 2011 to December 2021) was assessed through PubMed and MEDLINE databases. A narrative review of most relevant articles was provided. Results The frequencies in which LNDs are being carried out are decreasing due to an increase in minimally invasive and nephron sparing surgery. Moreover, randomized clinical trials and meta-analyses failed to show any survival advantage of LND versus no LND. However, retrospective studies suggest a survival benefit of LND in high-risk patients (bulky tumors, T3-4 stage, and cN1 patients). Moreover, extended LND might provide important staging information, which could be of interest for adjuvant treatment planning. Conclusion No level 1 evidence of any survival advantage deriving from LND is currently available in literature. Thus, the role of LND is limited to staging purposes. However, low grade evidence suggests a possible role of LND in high-risk patients. Randomized clinical trials are warranted to corroborate these findings.

Abstract
Simple Summary Approximately one fifth of patients with newly diagnosed renal cell carcinoma (RCC) present with metastatic disease and over one third of the remaining patients with localized RCC will eventually have metastases spread to distant sites after complete resection of the primary tumor in the kidney. Usually, disease recurrence is observed within the first five years of follow-up, but late recurrences after five years are seen in up to 10% of patients. Despite novel biomarkers, simple histopathological factors, such as tumor size, tumor grade, and tumor extension into the blood vessels or beyond the kidney, are still valid features in predicting the risk of disease recurrence after surgery. The optimal set of prognostic factors remains unclear. The results from ongoing placebo-controlled adjuvant therapy trials may elucidate prognostic features that help to define high-risk patients for disease recurrence. Abstract Approximately 20% of patients with renal cell carcinoma (RCC) present with primarily metastatic disease and over 30% of patients with localized RCC will develop distant metastases later, after complete resection of the primary tumor. Accurate postoperative prognostic models are essential for designing personalized surveillance programs, as well as for designing adjuvant therapy and trials. Several clinical and histopathological prognostic factors have been identified and adopted into prognostic algorithms to assess the individual risk for disease recurrence after radical or partial nephrectomy. However, the prediction accuracy of current prognostic models has been studied in retrospective patient cohorts and the optimal set of prognostic features remains unclear. In addition to traditional histopathological prognostic factors, novel biomarkers, such as gene expression profiles and circulating tumor DNA, are extensively studied to supplement existing prognostic algorithms to improve their prediction accuracy. Here, we aim to give an overview of existing prognostic features and prediction models for localized postoperative clear cell RCC and discuss their role in the adjuvant therapy trials. The results of ongoing placebo-controlled adjuvant therapy trials may elucidate prognostic factors and biomarkers that help to define patients at high risk for disease recurrence.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES We provide a systematic literature review on tissue miRNAs in patients with RCC to evaluate and summarize their usefulness as prognostic markers. We undertook a systematic search for articles in English using the PubMed-Medline database from January 2010 to December 2020. Studies were identified and selected according to the PRISMA criteria and the PICO methodology. The population consisted of RCC patients undergoing nephrectomy and the main outcome of interest was recurrence-free survival (RFS). Only studies providing hazard ratios (HRs) from multivariate or univariate analyzes with corresponding 95% confidence intervals (CI) and/or area under the curve (AUC) were considered. CONTENT All nine included studies (1,541 patients) analyzed the relationship between tissue miRNA expression levels (up or downregulated) and RFS. Some of these found that the methylation status of miR-9-1, miR-9-3 and miR-124 was associated with a high risk of relapse. Moreover, miR-200b overexpression was associated with OS. MiR-210 overexpression indicated a shorter OS than those who were miR-210 negative. Finally, patients with high miR-125b expression had shorter CSS than those with low expression; similarly, patients with low miR-126 expression also had shorter CSS time. SUMMARY AND OUTLOOK Several studies tested the usefulness of specific miRNAs to predict RCC recurrence. Some of them showed a fair accuracy and strong relationship between specific miRNA over or under-expression and survival outcomes. However, results from these studies are preliminary and miRNAs use in routine clinical practice is still far to come.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW We aim to summarize the current state of art about the possible use of biomarkers for predicting renal cell carcinoma (RCC) recurrence after curative treatment. In addition, we aim to provide a snapshot about the clinical implication of biomarkers use for follow-up planification. RECENT FINDINGS A wide variety of biomarkers have been proposed. RCC biomarkers have been individuated in tumoral tissue, blood, and urine. A variety of molecules, including proteins, DNA, and RNA, warrant a good accuracy for RCC recurrence and progression prediction. Their use in prediction models might warrant a better patients' risk stratification. Future prognostic models will probably include a combination of classical features (tumor grade, stage, etc.) and novel biomarkers. Such models might allow a more accurate treatment and follow-up planification.

Prognostic significance of pathologic nodal positivity in non-metastatic patients with renal cell carcinoma who underwent radical or partial nephrectomy. Sci Rep 2021; 11:3079.

Abstract
This retrospective, five-multicenter study was aimed to evaluate the prognostic impact of pathologic nodal positivity on recurrence-free (RFS), metastasis-free (MFS), overall (OS), and cancer-specific (CSS) survivals in patients with non-metastatic renal cell carcinoma (nmRCC) who underwent either radical or partial nephrectomy with/without LN dissection. A total of 4236 nmRCC patients was enrolled between 2000 and 2012, and followed up through the end of 2017. Survival measures were compared between 52 (1.2%) stage pT1-4N1 (LN+) patients and 4184 (98.8%) stage pT1-4N0 (LN-) patients using Kaplan-Meier analysis with the log-rank test and Cox regression analysis to determine the prognostic risk factors for each survival measure. During the median 43.8-month follow-up, 410 (9.7%) recurrences, 141 (3.3%) metastases, and 351 (8.3%) deaths, including 212 (5.0%) cancer-specific deaths, were reported. The risk factor analyses showed that predictive factors for RFS, CSS, and OS were similar, whereas those of MFS were not. After adjusting for significant clinical factors affecting survival outcomes considering the hazard ratios (HR) of each group, the LN+ group, even those with low pT stage, had similar to or worse survival outcomes than the pT3N0 (LN-) group in multivariable analysis and had significantly more relationship with RFS than MFS. All survival measures were significantly worse in pT1-2N1 patients (MFS/RFS/OS/CSS; HR 4.12/HR 3.19/HR 4.41/HR 7.22) than in pT3-4N0 patients (HR 3.08/HR 2.92/HR 2.09/HR 3.73). Therefore, LN+ had an impact on survival outcomes worse than pT3-4N0 and significantly affected local recurrence rather than distant metastasis compared to LN- in nmRCC after radical or partial nephrectomy.

Abstract
Background: Testicular cancer represents the most common malignancy in young adult men. In the current study, we sought to analyze and compare the prognostic value of lymph node ratio (LNR) as well as positive lymph node counts (LNC) to understand its clinical significance in testicular germ cell tumors. Methods: We employed eligibility criteria to recruit a total of 931 patients, with testicular cancer, from 2010 to 2015 from The Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database. We then used the X-Tile program to calculate LNR and LNC cutoff values and discriminate survival. We then calculated the overall and cancer specific survival rates and analyzed the association between LNR/LNC and clinical pathological characteristics using the χ2 test. Finally, we assessed the relationships between clinical pathological factors and patient survival using univariate Cox proportional hazard analysis. Results: Univariate analysis revealed a significant association between prognosis with age (HR, 5.169; 95% CI, 1.758-15.200; P = 0.003), AJCC stage (III vs I: HR, 9.298; 95% CI, 2.691-32.131; P < 0.001), M stage (HR, 7.897; 95% CI, 3.417-18.251; P < 0.001) and LNR (HR, 3.009; 95% CI, 1.275-7.098; P = 0.012). On the other hand, LNC (HR, 1.743; 95% CI, 0.687-4.420; P = 0.242) was not significantly associated with prognosis. Analysis of the association between LNR/LNC and clinical pathological characteristics showed that high LNR patients tended to have significantly larger tumor sizes (χ2 = 7.877, P = 0.005), as well as advanced T (χ2 = 13.195, P = 0.004), N ( χ2 = 86.775, P < 0.001), M (χ2 = 19.948, P < 0.001) and 7th AJCC (χ2 = 103.074, P < 0.001) stages. In addition, high LNC patients were significantly associated with T (χ2 = 8.799, P = 0.032), N (χ2 = 74.390, P < 0.001) and 7th AJCC (χ2 = 111.759, P < 0.001) stages. Conclusion: LNR was a better predictor for long-term prognosis and was closely associated with clinical pathological characteristics than LNC in patients with testicular germ cell tumors.

Abstract
Radical nephrectomy (RN) remains a cornerstone of the management of localised renal cell carcinoma (RCC). RN involves the en bloc removal of the kidney along with perinephric fat enclosed within Gerota's fascia. Key principles of open RN include appropriate incision for adequate exposure, dissection and visualisation of the renal hilum, and early ligation of the renal artery and subsequently renal vein. Regional lymph node dissection (LND) facilitates local staging but its therapeutic role remains controversial. LND is recommended in patients with high risk clinically localised disease, but its benefit in low risk node-negative and clinically node-positive patients is unclear. Concomitant adrenalectomy should be reserved for patients with large tumours with radiographic evidence of adrenal involvement. Despite a recent downtrend in utilisation of open RN due to nephron-sparing and minimally invasive alternatives, there remains a vital role for open RN in the management of RCC in three domains. Firstly, open RN is important to the management of large, complex tumours which would be at high risk of complications if treated with partial nephrectomy (PN). Secondly, open RN plays a crucial role in cytoreductive nephrectomy (CN) for metastatic RCC, in which the laparoscopic approach achieves similar results but is associated with a high reoperation rate. Finally, open RN is the current standard of care in the management of inferior vena caval (IVC) tumour thrombus. Management of tumour thrombus requires a multidisciplinary approach and varies with cranial extent of thrombus. Higher level thrombus may require hepatic mobilisation and circulatory support, whilst the presence of bland thrombus may warrant post-operative filter insertion or ligation of the IVC.

Abstract
Objective To develop and validate a nomogram for predicting the overall survival (OS) of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) patients after nephrectomy. Materials and Methods In total, 488 patients with RCC who underwent nephrectomy at the Urology Department of the First Hospital of Shanxi Medical University between January 2013 and December 2018 were randomly divided into a development cohort (n = 344) and a validation cohort (n = 144). The development cohort was used to build a prediction model, and the validation cohort was used for validation. Single-factor and multifactor analyses were carried out with R software, and the nomogram, calibration chart, ROC curve and C index were constructed. Results The median follow-up time of the development and validation cohorts was 34 months. The total 3-year and 5-year survival rates of the development cohort were 93.3% and 91.6%, respectively; those of the validation cohort were 92.4% and 91.0%, respectively. Cox univariate analysis of the development cohort showed that age, type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), smoking history, type of surgery, T stage, N stage, M stage and Fuhrman nuclear grade were prognostic factors for OS in RCC patients undergoing nephrectomy. Cox multivariate analysis showed that T2DM, smoking history and T stage were independent prognostic factors for OS in RCC patients undergoing nephrectomy (P < 0.05). According to the univariate and multivariate analyses, a nomogram was constructed. In the development cohort, the C index of predicted OS was 0.875 (95% CI, 0.820-0.930). The calibration curve of the 3-year and 5-year survival rates showed that the predicted value of the nomogram was consistent with the actual observed value. The area under the 3-year and 5-year survival ROC curves was 0.861 and 0.901, respectively. In the validation cohort, the C index was 0.880 (95% CI, 0.778-0.982). The calibration curve of the 3-year and 5-year survival rates showed that the predicted value of the nomogram was consistent with the actual observed value. The area under the 3-year and 5-year survival ROC curves was 0.813 and 0.799, respectively. Conclusion We developed and verified a new and accurate nomogram with available clinicopathological data that can effectively predict the OS of RCC patients after nephrectomy.

Abstract
Background To evaluate demographic, clinical and pathological characteristics of small renal masses (SRM) (≤ 4 cm) in a Latin-American population provided by LARCG (Latin-American Renal Cancer Group) and analyze predictors of survival, recurrence and metastasis. Methods A multi-institutional retrospective cohort study of 1523 patients submitted to surgical treatment for non-metastatic SRM from 1979 to 2016. Comparisons between radical (RN) or partial nephrectomy (PN) and young or elderly patients were performed. Kaplan-Meier curves and log-rank tests estimated 10-year overall survival. Predictors of local recurrence or metastasis were analyzed by a multivariable logistic regression model. Results PN and RN were performed in 897 (66%) and 461 (34%) patients. A proportional increase of PN cases from 48.5% (1979–2009) to 75% (after 2009) was evidenced. Stratifying by age, elderly patients (≥ 65 years) had better 10-year OS rates when submitted to PN (83.5%), than RN (54.5%), p = 0.044. This disparity was not evidenced in younger patients. On multivariable model, bilaterality, extracapsular extension and ASA (American Society of Anesthesiologists) classification ≥3 were predictors of local recurrence. We did not identify significant predictors for distant metastasis in our series. Conclusions PN is performed in Latin-America in a similar proportion to developed areas and it has been increasing in the last years. Even in elderly individuals, if good functional status, sufficiently fit to surgery, and favorable tumor characteristics, they should be encouraged to perform PN. Intending to an earlier diagnosis of recurrence or distant metastasis, SRM cases with unfavorable characteristics should have a more rigorous follow-up routine.

Histotype predicts the rate of lymph node invasion at nephrectomy in patients with nonmetastatic renal cell carcinoma. Urol Oncol 2020; 38:537-544. [PMID: 32122729 DOI: 10.1016/j.urolonc.2020.01.013] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/29/2019] [Revised: 10/15/2019] [Accepted: 01/27/2020] [Indexed: 11/27/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Lymph node invasion (LNI) at nephrectomy is one of the most important predictors of mortality in patients with nonmetastatic renal cell carcinoma (RCC). We analyzed the effect of histology on lymph node metastases at nephrectomy and its effect on survival in a contemporary cohort of patients with nonmetastatic RCC. METHODS Within the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results database (2004-2015), we identified 100,060 patients with clear-cell, papillary, chromophobe, sarcomatoid, and collecting duct RCC, who underwent nephrectomy with or without lymph node dissection for nonmetastatic RCC. Logistic regression models, cumulative incidence plots, and competing-risks regression models were performed. RESULTS Overall, 10,590 patients underwent lymph node dissection for nonmetastatic RCC. Of these, LNI was recorded in 52 (7.0%), 615 (8.7%), 282 (13.9%), 316 (25.1%), 129 (38.3%), 45 (71.4%) patients with chromophobe, clear-cell, nonotherwise specified RCC, papillary, sarcomatoid, and collecting duct RCC histological subtypes, respectively. In logistic regression models, relative to clear-cell, papillary Odds ratio (OR 3.9), sarcomatoid (OR 6.3), collecting duct (OR 14.6) but not chromophobe RCC (OR 0.9; P = 0.5) independently predicted LNI at surgery. Moreover, in competing-risks regression models, LNI increased the risk of CSM 1.8-fold for sarcomatoid, 3.6-fold for clear-cell, 4.1-fold for papillary, and 6.7-fold for chromophobe histological subtype. CONCLUSIONS Histology is an independent predictor of increased risk of LNI at nephrectomy. Moreover, the effect of pathological nodal stage on survival differs according to different histology.

Abstract
Objective We used population-based data to examine the possible benefit of extended lymphadenectomy for patients with renal malignancy in the setting of more advanced disease. Methods The Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database was utilized to identify non-metastatic, T3-T4 renal cancer patients from 2004–2015 treated with removal of ≥1 lymph node at the time of nephrectomy. Non-parametric bivariate statistics were used to assess associations between covariates of interest and extended lymphadenectomy (≥10 lymph nodes removed). Cancer-specific survival (CSS) and overall survival (OS) benefit was evaluated using Kaplan–Meier analysis. Results Of the 4397 patients identified, 816 (18.6%) underwent extended lymphadenectomy. For patients with T3a disease, 5-year CSS and OS benefit with extended lymphadenectomy did not reach statistical significance (CSS: hazard ratio [HR] 0.98, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.77–1.24; OS: HR 0.96, 95% CI 0.77–1.20). Conversely, for those with T3b-T3c disease, extended lymphadenectomy led to statistically significant improvements in both 5-year CSS and OS compared to non-extended lymphadenectomy (CSS: HR 0.78, 95% CI 0.61–0.99; OS: HR 0.72, 95% CI 0.58–0.90). Finally, for those with T4 disease, use of extended lymphadenectomy had OS benefit after 5 years (OS: HR 0.51, HR 0.29–0.90, p = 0.02). Conclusion Based on population-level data, extended lymphadenectomy was associated with improved survival in select patients with advanced renal malignancy treated with surgical nephrectomy. Understanding the basis of these real-world findings in the face of conflicting randomized trial results will be key, moving forward.

Abstract
PURPOSE Attempt to group the number of lymph nodes in a more ideal way to assess the value of lymph node dissection (LND) in the treatment of localized high-risk renal cell cancer (LH-RCC). METHODS The Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Result database (SEER) was used to analyze LH-RCC patients who undergoing radical nephrectomy (RN) from 2011 to 2015. The X-tile software was performed to calculate the optimal grouping cut-off points for the number of removed lymph nodes and positive lymph nodes. The Nomogram model was constructed by R language to visually present survival rates of patients. RESULTS Among 4917 cases of LH-RCC patients undergoing RN, there were 1835 patients treated with LND (37.32%) with the average survival time (AST) of 43.10 months (95% CI 41.91-44.29), which was superior than 40.52 months of patients who did not have LND (95% CI 39.26-41.78) (P < 0.01). The mortality risk of patients with ≥ 3 removed nodes was 0.75 times that of patients with 1-2 removed nodes (95% CI 0.62-0.99, P < 0.01). For overall survival (OS), the hazard ratio of ≥ 5 positive nodes, 1-4 positive nodes, and 0 positive node was 3.04, 2.37, and 1.00, respectively. The Nomogram model can evaluate the 1 year, 2 year, and 3 year survival rates of LH-RCC patients undergoing RN with the internal validation C-index of 0.73. CONCLUSION LH-RCC patients with ≥ 3 removed lymph nodes and fewer positive lymph nodes are expected to have better long-term survival. LND is not only helpful for tumor staging of LH-RCC, but also valuable for long-term survival.

Abstract
The purpose of the present study was to validate the new GRade, Age, Nodes and Tumor (GRANT) score for renal cell carcinoma (RCC) prognostication within a large population of patients. Within the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results database, we identified patients with either clear-cell or papillary RCC, who underwent nephrectomy between 2001 and 2015. Harrell’s C-Index, calibration plot and decision curve analysis were used to validate the GRANT model using a five-risk group stratification (0 vs. 1 vs. 2 vs. 3 vs. 4 risk factors). The primary endpoint was overall survival (OS) at 60 months. The analyses were repeated according to the histologic subgroup. The overall population included 73217 cases; 60900 with clear-cell RCC and 12317 with papillary histology, respectively. According to a five-risk group stratification, 23985 patients (32.8%) had no risk factor (0), 35019 (47.8%) had only one risk factor (1), 13275 (18.1%) had risk score 2854 (1.2%) had 3 risk factors and 84 (0.1%) of cases had a GRANT score of 4, respectively. At 60 months, OS rates as determined by the GRANT score were respectively 94% (score 0) vs. 86% (score 1) vs. 76% (score 2) vs. 46% (score 3) vs. 16% (score 4). In both histologic subtypes, the GRANT score yielded good calibration and high net benefit. OS C-Index values were 0.677 and 0.650 for clear-cell and papillary RCC at 60 months after surgery, respectively. In conclusion, the GRANT score was validated with a five-risk group stratification in a huge population from the SEER database, offering a further demonstration of its reliability for prognostication in RCC.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The benefit of lymph node dissection (LND) in renal cell carcinoma (RCC) remains poorly defined. Despite this uncertainty, the American Urological Association (AUA) guideline on localized renal cancer recommends that LND be performed for staging purposes when there is suspicion of regional lymphadenopathy on imaging. Using the National Cancer Database (NCDB), we sought to determine how much of a departure the new AUA guideline is from current practice. We hypothesized that practice patterns would reflect the "Expert Opinion" recommendation and that patients who are clinical lymph node (cLN) positive would receive a LND more often than those who are cLN negative. Additionally, we sought to determine factors that would trigger a LND as well the accuracy of clinical staging by examining the relationship between cLN and pathologic lymph node (pLN) status of patients who received a LND. MATERIALS AND METHODS The NCDB was queried for patients with nonmetastatic RCC who underwent partial nephrectomy or nephrectomy from 2010 to 2014. Patient sociodemographic and clinical characteristics were extracted. Frequency distributions were calculated for patients with both cLN and pLN status available. Of patients who received a LND, sensitivity, specificity, and positive/negative predictive values (PPV/NPV) of cLN status for pLN positivity were calculated. Logistic regression models were used to examine association between clinical and socioeconomic factors and receipt of LND. Propensity score matching was used in sensitivity analyses to examine potential for reporting bias in NCDB data. RESULTS We identified 110,963 patients who underwent surgery for RCC, of whom 11,867 (11%) had LND performed at the time of surgery. cLN and pLN information were available in 11,300 patients, of which 1,725 were preoperatively staged as having positive cLN. More LNDs were performed per year for patients who were cLN negative than cLN positive. Of patients who received a LND, the majority of patients were cLN negative across all clinical T (cT) stages. Multivariable analysis showed that all patients who had care at an academic/research institution (odds ratio [OR]: 1.58, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.43-1.74) and had to travel >12.5 to 31.0 miles and >31.0 miles to a treatment center (OR: 1.08, 95%CI: 1.01-1.15 and OR: 1.28, 95%CI: 1.20-1.36, respectively) were more likely to get a LND. As cT stage increased from cT2-4, the risk of LND increased (OR range: 4.7-7.90, respectively). Patients who were cLN positive were more likely to receive a LND at the time of surgery (OR: 18.68, 95%CI: 16.62-21.00). Of the patients who received a LND, clinical staging was more specific than sensitive. CONCLUSION More patients received a LND who were cLN negative compared to patients who were cLN positive. Patients who were cLN positive were more likely to receive a LND. Treatment center type, distance to treatment center, cT stage, and cLN positivity were factors associated with LND receipt.

Radical Nephrectomy with or without Lymph Node Dissection for pT3 Renal Cell Carcinoma: A Propensity Score-based Analysis. J Cancer 2019; 10:2369-2375. [PMID: 31258740 PMCID: PMC6584409 DOI: 10.7150/jca.30375] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/02/2018] [Accepted: 04/25/2019] [Indexed: 11/30/2022] Open
Abstract
Objectives: To study whether radical nephrectomy (RN) with lymph node dissection (LND) can benefit pT3 renal cell carcinoma (RCC) patients versus no LND under the 2018 American Joint Committee on Cancer TNM classification system. Subjects/Patients and Methods: We performed a retrospective cohort study of clinicopathological data for 245 T3 RCC patients, who underwent radical nephrectomy between January 2006 and December 2013 at our center, including 67 (27.1%) who underwent LND. The relationships between the LND and progression-free survival (PFS), cancer-specific survival (CSS), and overall survival (OS) were evaluated using 1:1 propensity score (PS) matching. Then, Kaplan-Meier survival analysis and Cox regression analysis were conducted to study whether these patients can benefit from LND. Depending on the LND number, we divided the cohort into two groups for further comparation. At last, we validated the results with the TCGA database KIRC patients. Results: The median follow-up time was 4.9 years. Sixty-seven pairs of patients were screened by the PS and were further analyzed. We conducted a Cox regression with the survival data and found that the LND group, compared with the non-LND group, showed no survival benefit on PFS, CSS, and OS (p = 0.444, 0.809, and 0.816, respectively). However, the removal of 5 or more LNs showed negative effect on OS (p = 0.0387). TCGA cohort results are mostly consistent with our findings. Conclusion: RN with LND cannot improve the PFS, CSS, or OS for pT3 renal cell carcinoma patients.

Abstract
PURPOSE To review the role of radiotherapy (RT) in the treatment of renal cell cancer (RCC) in the curative and palliative setting. CONTENT Details related to the clinical outcomes of primary, preoperative, postoperative and palliative RT are discussed, along with a presentation of the established role of surgery and systemic therapy. An overview of data derived from mono- and multi-institutional trials is provided. CONCLUSION Radiotherapy has been shown to provide good symptom palliation and local control in RCC depending on the dose that can be delivered. There is emerging data suggesting that with the use of high-precision RT methods the indication spectrum of RT can be exploited covering different clinical situations particularly for unresectable local recurrences and oligometastatic disease.
