“…Central nervous system metastases were associated with the worst prognosis, as patients in this group had a 5-year survival rate of only 18% [ 23 ]. A study [ 54 ] on a population of 1780 patients with clinically positive lymph nodes showed that their excision improved OS by 3% for each node excised; however, this group of patients is at lower risk of survival due to other comorbid factors.…”

“…This may be due to the lymph node dissection performed during CRN. Increasing lymph node yield on the pathologic specimen is associated with improved OS in patients with mRCC and N1 disease who underwent cytoreductive nephrectomy ( 27 ). Although lymph node dissection did not improve OS in mRCC in many studies, the N stage should not be simply divided into N0 and N1 as in the current TNM stage, which is in line with the new EAU RCC TNM staging system ( 28 ).…”

“…In addition, the modern phase III trials have not mandated LND as a component of CN [3,4,48]. Nonetheless, five retrospective observational studies and one meta-analysis have investigated whether LND during CN is associated with an improvement in overall survival among patients with mRCC [55][56][57][58][59][60]. The common finding between these studies is that LND does not appear to impart a survival advantage in mRCC patients.…”
