Abstract
Scopo del lavoro Some reports suggested that nephron sparing surgery (NSS) may better protect against other-cause mortality (OCM) when compared with radical nephrectomy (RN) in patients with small renal masses. However, the majority of those studies could not adjust their results for potential selection bias secondary to clinical baseline characteristics of patients. In the current study, we aimed to test the effect of treatment type (NSS vs. RN) after accounting for clinical characteristics, comorbidities and individual cardiovascular risk. Materiali e metodi A multi-institutional collaboration among four European Tertiary Care Centers allowed collecting 2685 patients with a clinical T1a-T1b N0 M0 renal mass. Patients underwent RN (n=1059, 39.4%) or NSS (n=1626, 60.6%) and showed normal estimated glomerular filtration rates (eGFR) before surgery (defined as a pre-operative eGFR≥60 milliliters per minute per 1.73 m2). Descriptive, univariable and multivariable Cox regression analyses were used to predict the risk of OCM. To adjust for inherent baseline differences among patients, we included as covariates: age, clinical tumor size, gender, presence of hypertension at diagnosis, baseline Charlson comorbidity index (CCI), body mass index and smoker status.
