ABSTRACT
Propósito Se intentó determinar la incidencia, hallazgos patológicos, factores pronósticos y resultados clínicos para pacientes con CCR papilar clínicamente localizado. Métodos Demográfico, Se recopilaron hallazgos clínicos y patológicos en todos los pacientes con CCRP sometidos a cirugía en cuatro centros médicos académicos. El punto final primario fue la supervivencia específica del cáncer (CSS). La supervivencia sin recaída (RFS) y la supervivencia general (OS) fueron puntos finales secundarios. Kaplan- Se obtuvieron estimaciones de Meier y se usaron modelos de regresión de riesgos proporcionales de Cox para evaluar predictores de mortalidad y recaída. Resultados Identificamos 626 CCPR, de los cuales 373 (60por ciento) fueron del tipo 1 y 253 (40 por ciento) fueron del tipo 2, con tres cuartas partes de todos los tumores siendo pT1. En comparación con los pacientes con tipo 1, aquellos con tipo 2 eran mayores (edad media: 63 frente a 61; (AU)
Purpose We aimed to determine incidence, pathologic fndings, prognostic factors and clinical outcomes for patients with clinically localized papillary RCC. Methods Demographic, clinical and pathologic fndings were collected on all patients with PRCC undergoing sur-gery at four academic medical centers. The primary end-point was cancer-specifc survival (CSS). Relapse-free survival (RFS) and overall survival (OS) were secondary endpoints. Kaplan Meier estimates were obtained, and Cox proportional hazard regression models were used to assess predictors of mortality and relapse. Results We identifed 626 PRCC, of which 373 (60 pertcent) were type 1 and 253 (40 pertcent) were type 2, with three-quar-ters of all tumors being pT1. Compared to patients with type 1, those with type 2 were older (mean age: 63 vs 61; (AU)

INTRODUCTION: Robotic Pyeloplasty (RAP) is a technique for management of uretero-pelvic junction obstruction (UPJO). PURPOSE: To report outcomes of RAP for primary and secondary (after failed primary treatment) UPJO. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Single institution data of adult RAP performed from 2007 to 2009 was collected retrospectively following approval by our IRB. Database analysis including patient age, race, pre and post-operative imaging studies and perioperative variables including operative time, blood loss, pain and complications. RESULTS: Fifty-five adult patients underwent RAP (26 left/29 right) for UPJO including 9 secondary procedures from 2007 to 2009. Average follow-up was 16 months (1-36). Mean age was 41 years (18-71) with an average BMI of 27 (17-42), 32 were female. Majority were diagnosed with preoperative diuretic renal scintigraphy with obstructed side demonstrating mean function of 41% and t1/2 of 70 minutes. Mean operative time was 194 minutes with average blood loss less than 100 mL. Mean hospital stay was 1.7 days with an average narcotic equivalent dose of 15 mg. RAP for secondary UPJO took longer with more blood loss and had a lower success rate. Failure was defined as necessitating another procedure due to persistent pain and/or obstruction on diuretic renal imaging. One patient (2%) with primary UPJO failed and 2 patients (22%) with secondary UPJO failed. One major complication occurred. CONCLUSION: RAP is a good option for the treatment of patients with UPJO. Reported series have established that endopyelotomy has inferior success as a treatment for primary UPJO which compromises the success of subsequent treatment as demonstrated in our higher failure rate with secondary UPJO repair.
