Can partial nephrectomy preserve renal function and modify survival in comparison with radical nephrectomy?

Abstract: For stage T1 renal cortical tumours, NSS should, whenever possible, be regarded as the primary therapeutic option, given that it obtains similar oncological outcomes to RN and preserves renal function, which seems to translate into a lower overall mortality rate.

“…[1][2][3] More recently, however, larger studies comparing overall survival (OS) and CSS after partial and radical nephrectomies for T1b tumours have established NSS as an option with equivalent oncological outcomes and a significantly lower incidence of postoperative chronic kidney disease. [4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11] Based on these isolated studies, many medical associations (American Urological Association, European Association of Urology and the National Comprehensive Cancer Network) now recommend NSS for tumours larger than 4 cm which are surgically amendable to this approach.…”

“…So far, most studies on PN have included only tumour, node, metastasis (TNM) stage I disease and have focused on survival and kidney function in a selected group of patients [15][16][17][18][19]. Furthermore, as most of these studies were carried out in large tertiary referral centres, the outcome may reflect that in a selected cohort of patients rather than in the general population.…”
