Surgical treatment for renal masses in the elderly: analysis of oncological, surgical and functional outcomes

Int. braz. j. urol; 45 (3), 2019
ABSTRACT Purpose: Radical treatment in elderly patients with renal tumor remains debatable due to uncertainties regarding the risk of surgical complications, risk of end-stage renal disease (ESRD) and survival benefit. The aim of the study was to assess outcomes of radical treatment for renal cancer in ...

Analysis of various potential prognostic markers and survival data in clear cell renal cell carcinoma

Int. braz. j. urol; 43 (3), 2017
ABSTRACT Purpose Clear cell renal cell cancers frequently harbor Von Hippel-Lindau gene mutations, leading to stabilization of the hypoxia-inducible factors (HIFs) and their target genes. In this study, we investigated the relationship between vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), HIF-1α, HIF...
