Abstract
INTRODUCTION There are scant data on renal cell carcinoma (RCC) from relatively younger patients in South America using contemporary classification. METHODS Fifty-nine consecutively treated patients with RCC (≤40 years old) were assessed from the National Institute of Neoplastic Diseases in Peru from 2008 to 2020 (34 males; 25 females), age range of 13 to 40 years. RESULTS Most common presenting symptoms were flank pain (n = 40), hematuria (n = 19), and weight loss (n = 12). Associated conditions included 4 patients with proven or presumed tuberous sclerosis and 1 patient with von Hippel Lindau syndrome, all with clear cell RCC. Tumor histopathology was clear cell RCC in 32 of 59 (54%), chromophobe RCC in 6 of 59 (10%), and 5 of 59 (8%) each of papillary RCC and MiT family translocation-associated RCC. Four of 59 (7%) were FH-deficient RCC and 2 of 59 (3%) remained unclassified. The remaining tumors were isolated examples of clear cell papillary renal cell tumor, eosinophilic solid and cystic RCC (ESC RCC), RCC with fibromyomatous stroma, sarcomatoid RCC, and sarcomatoid clear cell RCC. Of the 4 FH-deficient RCCs, none had the classic morphology. The 5 MiT family translocation RCCs had variable morphology. There were 41 tumors without recurrence or metastases, 3 tumors with local recurrence only, 8 tumors with metastases only, and 7 tumors with both local recurrence and metastases. CONCLUSIONS The current study demonstrates the importance of special studies in accurately classifying RCC in younger individuals. The distribution of RCC subtypes in younger individuals is similar between 2 representative large institutions of the United States and Peru.

Nephron-sparing surgery for renal cell carcinoma in children and young adults: A systematic review. Urol Oncol 2023; 41:137-144. [PMID: 36428167 DOI: 10.1016/j.urolonc.2022.09.015] [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: 04/24/2022] [Revised: 07/08/2022] [Accepted: 09/22/2022] [Indexed: 11/23/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To determine the patient characteristics and role of nephron-sparing surgery (NSS) in the treatment of children and young adults with renal cell carcinoma (RCC). METHODS A systematic search of Embase, MEDLINE, and Scopus databases was conducted in December 2021 according to Cochrane collaboration recommendations. All included manuscripts were assessed for patient characteristics and all reported outcomes for patients undergoing partial nephrectomy (PN), and radical nephrectomy (RN) outcomes were abstracted as a comparison group. Primary outcomes included surgical outcomes, overall survival, kidney outcomes. Outcomes were pooled with weighted mean and ranges. Meta-analysis was not performed given study quality. This systematic review was prospectively registered on PROSPERO (CRD42022300261). RESULTS We found a total of 16 studies describing 119 and 559 unique patients undergoing PN and RN, respectively, with a mean age of 12.2 years and mean follow-up of 59.1 months. The mean tumor size for patients undergoing PN was 3.5 cm. Of the 113 patients undergoing PN with available data, 109 were alive at follow-up (98%). No studies reported long-term kidney outcomes, and four studies reported surgical outcomes. All studies had at least moderate risk of bias. CONCLUSIONS The use of NSS in children and young adults with RCC is feasible in selected patients. However, small sample sizes, confounding, and low study quality limit clinical recommendation on NSS in this population. There are significant opportunities for future research on the use of NSS in RCC, especially with systematic reporting of oncological, kidney, and surgical outcomes.

Abstract
Pediatric renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is a rare type of kidney cancer, most commonly occurring in teenagers and young adolescents. Few relatively large series of pediatric RCC have been reported. Knowledge of clinical characteristics, outcome and treatment strategies are often based on the more frequently occurring adult types of RCC. However, published pediatric data suggest that clinical, molecular and histological characteristics of pediatric RCC differ from adult RCC. This paper summarizes reported series consisting of ≥10 RCC pediatric patients in order to create an up-to-date overview of the clinical and histopathological characteristics, treatment and outcome of pediatric RCC patients.

Abstract
Birt-Hogg-Dube (BHD) disease is an autosomal dominant cancer syndrome characterized by benign skin tumors, renal cancer and spontaneous pneumothorax and is caused by mutations in the Folliculin (FLCN) gene. Benign skin tumors and pneumothorax occur in the majority of patients affected by BHD syndrome, but only 30-45% of them develop renal cell carcinoma (RCC) with a median age of diagnosis at 48. The earliest onset of RCC in a BHD patient has been reported at age 20. Here we report a case of a 14 year-old patient with germline FLCN mutation leading to an early-onset bulky RCC that could not be classified strictly according to existing histological types. Germline genetic testing revealed a deletion at FLCN exon 5. The father of the patient was identified as the asymptomatic carrier. We report the youngest patient with BHD-related RCC. This early onset presentation supports genetic testing of at-risk patients and initiation of imaging surveillance for RCC in early adolescence. In addition, future studies are necessary to understand the determinants of reduced penetrance in BHD disease.

Abstract
PURPOSE To investigate the safety and efficacy of nephron-sparing surgery (NSS) in the treatment of pediatric Xp11.2 translocation renal cell carcinoma (RCC). METHODS Clinical characteristics of 9 RCC children (7 males and 2 females) with Xp11.2 translocation who received NSS between January 1973 and December 2015 were retrospectively analyzed. The mean age was 7.8years (range: 4.5-13.5years). Xp11.2 translocation RCC was found in the left side in 4 patients and right in 5. 3 tumors were located in the upper pole of the kidney, 1 in the middle dorsal, 1 in the middle ventral and 4 in the lower pole. RCC presented with painless gross hematuria in 4 patients, abdominal mass in 1, and as an incidental finding by ultrasound examination in 4 patients. The mean course of hematuria was 3months (range: 1-7months). The mean tumor diameters were 3.7cm (range: 2.2-6.9cm). RESULTS All the patients received NSS with open transperitoneal approach. The mean operative time and estimated blood loss were 115min and 40ml, respectively. The time of renal pedicle clamping was 19-25min (mean: 21.5min). No complications (such as leakage of urine, prolonged drainage or secondary bleeding) were noted. No patients experienced local recurrence during the mean of 50.1-month follow-up (range: 13-117months). Intravenous urography (IVU) or contrast-enhanced CT was conducted at 6months after surgery which showed favorable kidney function in all patients. CONCLUSION Xp11.2 translocation RCC is a predominant pathological but biologically inert type of pediatric RCC. For Xp11.2 translocation RCC sized <4-7cm in diameter and located in one pole, NSS is safe and feasible. TYPE OF STUDY Treatment Studies, LEVEL IV.

Abstract
PURPOSE Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) represents a small proportion of renal malignancies early in life. Distinguishing RCC from other malignancies is important as treatment strategies may differ. We analyze the Surveillance Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database to identify predictive factors of RCC in the pediatric population with renal tumors. METHODS We queried SEER to identify patients from ages 0 to 19 diagnosed with a renal malignancy between 1973 and 2013. Cases were sorted using histology and site codes. Age-adjusted standardized incidence rates (SIR) were calculated. We compared differences in characteristics between cancer types. A logistic regression model and a nomogram were created to identify predictors of RCC. RESULTS A total of 3,670 patients were identified, of which 281 (7.7%) were diagnosed with RCC. The SIR of RCC increased with age. After age 12, RCC was found in >50% of all newly diagnosed cases. On multivariate analysis, RCC was associated with smaller tumor size (P < 0.001), increasing age (P < 0.001), black race (P < 0.001), and localized stage (P < 0.001). The nomogram predicted RCC pathology with a concordance index of 0.965. CONCLUSIONS RCC in childhood and adolescence is relatively uncommon; however, it accounts for >50% of renal malignancies after age 12. For every year of increasing age, the odds of having an RCC diagnosis are increased by 50%. The odds of a renal tumor being RCC are increased in black children, those with localized disease, and those with smaller tumors. In these specific populations, RCC should be favored in the differential diagnosis of the renal mass.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to investigate the influence of age at diagnosis on tumor characteristics and cancer-specific survival (CSS) in renal cell carcinoma (RCC). MATERIALS AND METHODS Data of patients who underwent radical or partial nephrectomy for renal tumor between 2003 and 2011 at multiple institutions were collected. Patients were divided into two groups according to age at diagnosis: 20-39 years and 40-79 years. To adjust for potential baseline confounders, propensity score matching was performed. RESULTS All included data showed that young RCC patients presented with renal tumors that had a more favorable histological subtype, were localized, smaller in size, and had a lower Fuhrman nuclear grade. The 5 year CSS rates were 95.5% and 90.5% in the young and old patient groups, respectively (log rank p = 0.019). After matching on the propensity score, the two groups with RCC had 302 patients each. Because the groups were matched on covariates, there were no significant differences in the pathological proportion, tumor size, Fuhrman nuclear grade and clinical T stage. The 5 year CSS rates were 95.5% and 94.7% in the young and old patient groups, respectively (log rank p = 0.184). CONCLUSION After adjusting for potential biases, there was no significant difference in prognosis between young and old patients with RCC.
