Abstract AIMS: To evaluate the role of nephron-sparing surgery (NSS) compared to radical nephrectomy (RN) for treating multiple ipsilateral renal tumors. METHODS: We retrospectively reviewed the clinical and pathological data of 960 patients who had surgery for pathologically confirmed RCC between 1986 and 2006. Thirty-four patients were diagnosed as having at least one ipsilateral smaller solid lesion associated with the primary RCC: 22 had RN while 12 had NSS for tumor enucleation. RESULTS: All patients who had NSS had tumors confined within the kidney, as did 82% of patients treated with RN. The sole presence of concomitant accompanying benign histology to the primary RCC was diagnosed in 20% of patients. The mean (median, range) follow-up for patients treated with RN and NSS was 69 (58, 12-214) and 58 (44, 12-151) months. Tumor stage was significantly associated with tumor-specific survival (TSS) in the RN group (p<0.001). None of the patients who had tumor enucleation had positive surgical margins. Two patients recurred locally after NSS, elsewhere in the kidney, resulting in a crude ipsilateral recurrence rate of 17%. The analysis of TSS for patients with multiple ipsilateral tumors with a pT1 primary lesion showed no statistically significant differences between patients who had RN or NSS. Two patients had contralateral recurrence, resulting in a crude rate of 6%. CONCLUSIONS: For patients with multiple ipsilateral renal tumors, 20% of the satellite lesions are benign and 6% develop a contralateral metachronous recurrence. We also observed similar TSS for patients treated with NSS and RN.
