Chemioterapia adiuvante nei tumori vescicali non muscolo invasivi a rischio intermedio. Risultati preliminari di uno studio retrospettivo multicentri…
2011
Introduzione e obiettivi Malgrado la chemioprofilassi endovescicale precoce dopo TUR sia indicata dalle linee guida in tutti i pazienti affetti da tumore vescicale non muscolo invasivo (NMI-BC), ancora dubbio rimane il miglior regime di terapia endovescicale adiuvante nei pazienti affetti da NMI-BC a rischio intermedio. Recenti studi sostengono l’adozione ab inizio del BCG. Vengono presentati i risultati preliminari di uno studio retrospettico multicentrico teso ad analizzare l’efficacia della chemioprofilassi endovescicale in questa categoria di pazienti e i diversi fattori che possono interferire sulla sua azione. Materiali e metodi Sono stati inseriti nello studio solo pazienti gia selez…

A new edition of the TNM was recently released that includes modifications for the staging system of kidney cancers. Specifically, T2 cancers were subclassified into T2a and T2b (10 cm), tumors with renal vein involvement or perinephric fat involvement were classified as T3a cancers, and those with adrenal involvement were classified as T4 cancers. OBJECTIVE: Our aim was to validate the recently released edition of the TNM staging system for primary tumor classification in kidney cancer. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS: Our multicenter retrospective study consisted of 5339 patients treated in 16 academic Italian centers. INTERVENTION: Patients underwent either radical or partial nephrecto…
Prognostic factors in a large multi-institutional series of papillary renal cell carcinoma.
2011
OBJECTIVES To investigate cancer-related outcomes and prognostic factors of papillary renal cell carcinoma (pRCC) in a large multicentre data set. Oncological outcome and prognostic factors of pRCC have been limitedly evaluated in comparison with the most common RCC subtype, clear cell RCC. PATIENTS AND METHODS From a multicentre retrospective database, including 5463 patients who were surgically treated for RCC at 16 Italian academic centres between 1995 and 2007, 577 patients with pRCC were identified. Univariable and multivariable Cox regression models were performed to identify prognostic factors predictive of recurrence-free survival (RFS) and cancer-specific survival (CSS) after surge…
