“…The greatest frequency of benign lesions in renal tumors is smaller than 3 cm, as previously published (12)(13)(14). This study concludes that benign lesion sizes are much larger than those reported in other studies.…”

Stem rust, caused by the fungus Puccinia graminis f. sp. tritici (Pgt), is one of the most important diseases limiting wheat production in Turkey. Surveys were conducted in 2007 and 2008 in order to determine the races of the pathogen present in Turkey. In 2007, it was found that 91 (43%) out of 207 inspected wheat fi elds were infected with stem rust, and in 2008, it was found that 61 (25%) out of 242 inspected fi elds were infected. From these samples, 40 single pustule isolates were obtained. Th e North American diff erential set, which includes 20 genotypes with diff erent resistance genes, was employed to identify the races present. Seedling tests were used for race analysis under greenhouse conditions. A total of 21 diff erent stem rust races were found. Pgt race TKTTC, which was found in 11 Pgt isolates, was the most common race. Genotypes possessing at least 1 of the Sr24, Sr31, Sr26, and Sr27 resistance genes showed low infection types for 40 Pgt isolates. Th e resistance genes determined in this study could be used in breeding programs for developing stem rust-resistant genotypes.

“…Partial nephrectomy, open or laparoscopic technique, cryoablation, radiofrequency (RF) ablation and ultrasonic ablation have proven equally effective in the management of suitable neoplasms (5,8,(16)(17)(18)(19). RF and cryoablation in particular have achieved recurrence-free survival rates of up to 98.7% (16)(17)(18)(19).…”

Objective: To investigate the association between tumour location and the proportion of benign disease in renal masses presumed to be renal cell carcinoma (RCC) preoperatively. Methods: This Institutional Review Board approved study includes 196 patients who underwent surgical treatment for renal masses <5 cm at our institution by a single surgeon between January 2002 and June 2009. Based on preoperative imaging, each mass was designated as central (touching or encroaching upon the renal collecting system and/or renal sinus) or peripheral. The association between tumour location and benign pathology was determined using univariate and multiple logistic regression, including tumour size and patient sex in the model. Results: The proportion of histologically confirmed benign disease in this series was 11.2%. The proportion of benign disease by location was 5.9% and 19.5% for central and peripheral masses, respectively. The effect of location was found to have a significant prognostic value (p = 0.0273) with an adjusted odds ratio of 3.51 (95% CI = 1.38-19.62) for the odds of a benign diagnosis in peripheral compared to central tumours. Tumour size and patient sex were not significant predictors of benign pathology (p = 0.483 and 0.191, respectively). Conclusions: Peripherally located renal masses are more likely to be benign than centrally located renal masses. This information may be used when selecting strategies for the management of renal masses presumed to be RCC.
