Delayed Intervention of Small Renal Masses on Active Surveillance
Although surgical excision is the standard of therapy for small renal masses (SRMs), there is a growing recognition of active surveillance as an option in select patients who are poor surgical candidates or who have shorter life expectancy. A number of patients on expectant management, however, subsequently advance to definitive therapy. In this study, we systematically reviewed the literature ...
متن کاملExplosive growth of a renal tumor during active surveillance.
The incidence of small renal masses (≤ 4 cm) has increased over the past three decades. Partial nephrectomy remains the standard for treatment of such lesions, but increased attention is being given to patients who may benefit from active surveillance, given the low risk of metastatic spread and traditionally slow growth rates. Patients with significant comorbidities and the elderly are often c...
متن کاملThe Natural History and Predictors for Intervention in Patients with Small Renal Mass Undergoing Active Surveillance
Aim. To describe the natural history of small renal mass on active surveillance and identify parameters that could help in predicting the need for intervention in patients with small renal masses undergoing active surveillance. We also discuss the need for renal biopsy in the management of these patients. Methods. A retrospective analysis of 78 renal masses ≤4 cm diagnosed at our Urology Depart...
متن کاملActive surveillance for renal cortical neoplasms.
PURPOSE We retrospectively evaluated our single center experience with patients with renal cortical neoplasms who elected active surveillance. MATERIALS AND METHODS We retrospectively evaluated our urological oncology database between January 1993 and January 2009, identifying a total of 223 renal cortical neoplasms in 212 patients that were initially managed by active surveillance. We descri...
متن کاملActive surveillance for small renal masses.
Small renal masses (SRMs; ≤ 4 cm in dimension) have rapidly risen in incidence in recent decades and pose an increasingly common management dilemma in urology. SRMs are biologically heterogeneous and a wide variety of treatments exist with favorable oncologic outcomes. Active surveillance (AS) has emerged as a viable option for those not desiring surgery or those who are suboptimal candidates f...
