RESUMO
OBJECTIVES: Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is infrequent among young adults. Few studies reported the outcome of RCC in young adults by pathological subtypes. The purpose of this study was to explore the clinicopathological features, survival outcomes and prognostic factors of young adult patients with clear cell (CCRCC) and non-clear cell renal cell carcinoma (NCCRCC). METHODS: This study included young adult patients aged 18-40 years who were diagnosed as renal cell carcinoma (RCC) between 2012 and 2022 at Peking University Third Hospital. All patients underwent either partial nephrectomy or radical nephrectomy, and some received adjuvant therapy. A comparative analysis was performed to investigate the differences in clinicopathological characteristics between the cohort of CCRCC and NCCRCC. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis was utilized to plot survival curves for young adults with RCC. The univariate and multifactorial prognostic analyses were conducted using the log-rank test and COX proportional hazards model. RESULTS: A total of 300 RCC patients aged 18-40 years were performed, of which 201 were diagnosed with CCRCC (67%) and 99 were diagnosed with NCCRCC(33%). The NCCRCC included 29 cases (9.7%) of chromophobe RCC, 28 cases (9.3%) of MiT family translocation RCC, 22 cases (7.3%) of papillary RCC, 11 cases (3.7%) of low malignant potential multifocal cystic RCC, and 6 cases of unclassified RCC (2.0%), 2 cases of mucinous tubule and spindle cell carcinoma (0.7%), and 1 case of FH-deficient RCC (0.3%).The mean age was 33.4 ± 6.1 years old. The overall and progression free 5-year survival rate was 99.1 and 95.3%, respectively. The NCCRCC cohort demonstrated a statistically significant decrease in progression-free survival (PFS) rate when compared to the CCRCC cohort (p < 0.001). There was no statistically significant difference observed in overall survival (OS) (p = 0.069). Pathological stage was a significant independent predictor for OS (p = 0.045). Pathological stage and nuclear grade were both independent predictors for PFS (p = 0.020; p = 0.005). CONCLUSIONS: The clinical and pathological features of young adults diagnosed with CCRCC exhibit notable distinctions from those of NCCRCC patients. The survival outcome was significantly influenced by the pathological stage, while both the nuclear grade and pathological stage had a significant impact on tumor progression. This study offered significant contributions to the understanding of the clinicopathological characteristics and prognostic determinants of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) in young adults.

BACKGROUND: The morphology of tumor thrombus varies from person to person and it may affect surgical methods and tumor prognosis. However, studies on the morphology of tumor thrombus are limited. The purpose of our study was to evaluate the impact of tumor thrombus morphology on surgical complexity. METHODS: We retrospectively reviewed the clinical data of 229 patients with renal cell carcinoma combined with inferior vena cava (IVC) tumor thrombus who underwent surgical treatment at Peking University Third Hospital between January 2014 and December 2021. The patients were divided into floating morphology (107 patients) and filled morphology (122 patients) tumor thrombi groups. Chi-square and Mann-Whitney U tests were used for categorical and continuous variables, respectively. Postoperative complications were evaluated using the Clavien-Dindo surgical complication classification method. RESULTS: Patients with filled morphology tumor thrombus required more surgical techniques than those with floating morphology tumor thrombus, which was reflected in more open surgeries (P < 0.001), more IVC interruptions (Pâ<0.001), lesser use of the delayed occlusion of the proximal inferior vena cava (DOPI) technique (P < 0.001), and a greater need for cut-off of the short hepatic vein (P < 0.001) and liver dissociation (P = 0.001). Filled morphology significantly increased the difficulty of surgery in patients with renal cell carcinoma with tumor thrombus, reflected in longer operation time (P < 0.001), more surgical blood loss (Pâ<0.001), more intra-operative blood transfusion (P < 0.001), and longer postoperative hospital stay (P < 0.001). Filled morphology tumor thrombus also led to more postoperative complications (53% vs. 20%; P < 0.001). CONCLUSION: Compared with floating morphology thrombus, filled morphology thrombus significantly increased the difficulty of surgery in patients with renal cell carcinoma with IVC tumor thrombus.

BACKGROUND: To define the incidence and independent predictive factors of intraoperative adverse events (IOAEs) after minimally invasive radical nephrectomy and thrombectomy (RNAT) and to determine the impact of intraoperative adverse events on oncological outcomes. PATIENTS AND METHODS: A total of 294 patients underwent minimally invasive RNAT from January 2010 to December 2023 in our center were included. IOAEs are defined as any deviation from the normal surgical procedure during the operation course. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was performed to identify the independent predictive factors of IOAEs. The Kaplan-Meier curves was used to compare overall survival and cancer-specific survival between patients with IOAEs or not. RESULTS: Seventy-four IOAEs occurred in 57 of 294 patients (19.4%) and the most frequent IOAEs were conversion to open surgery (42/74, 56.7%), followed by excessive hemorrhage (20/74, 27.0%). In multivariate logistic analysis, side (OR 0.0929; 95%Cl 0.0367-0.2160; p < 0.001), operation approach (OR 0.1762; 95%Cl 0.06828-0.4109; p < 0.001), and Mayo grade (OR 6.321; 95%Cl 3.846-11.13; p < 0.001) were independent predictive predictors of IOAEs during minimally invasive RNAT. IOAEs (OR 2.713; 95%Cl 1.242-5.897; p = 0.012) was an independent risk factor of the occurrence of postoperative complications. Between the patients with IOAEs or not, neither overall survival (OS) nor cancer-specific survival (CSS) showed statistical differences. Patients with postoperative complications show shorter OS and CSS. CONCLUSION: We found that the independent predictive factors of minimally invasive RNAT were side, operation approach and Mayo grade, and it is a risk factor of the occurrence of postoperative complications. In addition, the occurrence of IOAEs had no effect on long-term oncological outcomes.
RESUMO
BACKGROUND: Surgical treatment for renal cell carcinoma (RCC) and inferior vena cava (IVC) tumor thrombus (TT) is difficult, and the postoperative complication rate is high. This study aimed to explore the safety and oncologic outcomes of neoadjuvant stereotactic ablative body radiotherapy (SABR) combined with surgical treatment for RCC and IVC-TT. METHODS: Patients with RCC and IVC-TTs were enrolled in this study. All patients received neoadjuvant SABR focused on the IVC at a dose of 30 Gy in 5 fractions, followed by 2 ~ 4 weeks of rest. Then, radical nephrectomy and IVC tumor thrombectomy were performed for each patient. Adverse effects, perioperative outcomes, and long-term prognoses were recorded. RESULTS: From June 2018 to January 2019, 8 patients were enrolled-4 with Mayo grade II TT and 4 with Mayo grade III TT. Four (50%) patients had complicated IVC wall invasion according to CT/MRI. All patients received neoadjuvant SABR as planned. Short-term local control was observed in all 8 patients. Only Grade 1-2 adverse events were reported. In total, 3 (37.5%) laparoscopic surgeries and 5 (62.5%) open surgeries were performed. The median operation time was 359 (IQR: 279-446) min, with a median intraoperative bleeding volume of 750 (IQR: 275-2175) ml. The median postoperative hospital stay was 7 (5-10) days. With a 26-month (range: 5-41) follow-up period, the estimated mean overall survival was 30.67 ± 5.38 months. CONCLUSIONS: This is the first preoperative radiotherapy study in Asia that focused on patients with TT. This study revealed the considerable safety of neoadjuvant SABR for RCC with IVC-TT. TRIAL REGISTRATION: This study was registered in the Chinese Clinical Trials Registry on 2018-03-08 (ChiCTR1800015118).

INTRODUCTION: We aim to compare the safety and effectiveness of the KangDuo (KD)-Surgical Robot-01 (KD-SR-01) system and the da Vinci (DV) system for robot-assisted radical nephroureterectomy (RARNU). MATERIALS AND METHODS: This multicenter prospective randomized controlled trial was conducted between March 2022 and September 2023. Group 1 included 29 patients undergoing KD-RARNU. Group 2 included 29 patients undergoing DV-RARNU. Patient demographic and clinical characteristics, perioperative data, and follow-up outcomes were collected prospectively and compared between the two groups. RESULTS: There were no significant differences in patient baseline demographic and preoperative characteristics between the two groups. The success rates in both groups were 100% without conversion to open or laparoscopic surgery or positive surgical margins. No significant difference was observed in docking time [242 (120-951) s vs 253 (62-498) s, P = 0.780], console time [137 (55-290) min vs 105 (62-220) min, P = 0.114], operative time [207 (121-460) min vs 185 (96-305) min, P = 0.091], EBL [50 (10-600) mL vs 50 (10-700) mL, P = 0.507], National Aeronautics and Space Administration Task Load Index scores, and postoperative serum creatinine levels between the two groups. None of the patients showed evidence of distant metastasis, local recurrence, or equipment-related adverse events during the four-week follow-up. One (3.4%) patient in Group 2 experienced postoperative enterovaginal and enterovesical fistulas (Clavien-Dindo grade III). CONCLUSIONS: The KD-SR-01 system is safe and effective for RARNU compared to the DV Si or Xi system. Further randomized controlled studies with larger sample sizes and longer durations are required.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effect of different surgical timing on the surgical treatment of renal angiomyolipoma (RAML) with rupture and hemorrhage. METHODS: The demographic data and perioperative data of 31 patients with rupture and hemorrhage of RAML admitted to our medical center from June 2013 to February 2023 were collected. The surgery within 7 days after hemorrhage was defined as a short-term surgery group, the surgery between 7 days and 6 months after hemorrhage was defined as a medium-term surgery group, and the surgery beyond 6 months after hemorrhage was defined as a long-term surgery group. The perioperative related indicators among the three groups were compared. RESULTS: This study collected 31 patients who underwent surgical treatment for RAML rupture and hemorrhage, of whom 13 were males and 18 were females, with an average age of (46.2±11.3) years. The short-term surgery group included 7 patients, the medium-term surgery group included 12 patients and the long-term surgery group included 12 patients. In terms of tumor diameter, the patients in the long-term surgery group were significantly lower than those in the recent surgery group [(6.6±2.4) cm vs. (10.0±3.0) cm, P=0.039]. In terms of operation time, the long-term surgery group was significantly shorter than the mid-term surgery group [(157.5±56.8) min vs. (254.8±80.1) min, P=0.006], and there was no significant difference between other groups. In terms of estimated blood loss during surgery, the long-term surgery group was significantly lower than the mid-term surgery group [35 (10, 100) mL vs. 650 (300, 1 200) mL, P < 0.001], and there was no significant difference between other groups. In terms of intraoperative blood transfusion, the long-term surgery group was significantly lower than the mid-term surgery group [0 (0, 0) mL vs. 200 (0, 700) mL, P=0.014], and there was no significant difference between other groups. In terms of postoperative hospitalization days, the long-term surgery group was significantly lower than the mid-term surgery group [5 (4, 7) d vs. 7 (6, 10) d, P=0.011], and there was no significant difference between other groups. CONCLUSION: We believe that for patients with RAML rupture and hemorrhage, reoperation for more than 6 months is a relatively safe time range, with minimal intraoperative bleeding. Therefore, it is more recommended to undergo surgical treatment after the hematoma is systematized through conservative treatment.

OBJECTIVE: To predict the 3-year cancer-specific survival (CSS) of patients with non-metastatic T3a renal cell carcinoma after surgery. METHODS: A total of 336 patients with pathologically confirmed T3a N0-1M0 renal cell carcinoma (RCC) who underwent surgical treatment at the Department of Urology, Peking University Third Hospital from March 2013 to February 2021 were retrospectively collected. The patients were randomly divided into a training cohort of 268 cases and an internal validation cohort of 68 cases at an 4 ⶠ1 ratio. Using two-way Lasso regression, variables were selected to construct a nomogram for predicting the 3-year cancer-specific survival (CSS) of the patients with T3aN0-1M0 RCC. Performance assessment of the nomogram included evaluation of discrimination and calibration ability, as well as clinical utility using measures such as the concordance index (C-index), time-dependent area under the receiver operating characteristic curve [time-dependent area under the curve (AUC)], calibration curve, and decision curve analysis (DCA). Risk stratification was determined based on the nomogram scores, and Kaplan-Meier survival analysis and Log-rank tests were employed to compare progression-free survival (PFS) and cancer-specific survival (CSS) among the patients in the different risk groups. RESULTS: Based on the Lasso regression screening results, the nomogram was constructed with five variables: tumor maximum diameter, histological grading, sarcomatoid differentiation, T3a feature, and lymph node metastasis. The baseline data of the training and validation sets showed no statistical differences (P>0.05). The consistency indices of the column diagram were found to be 0.808 (0.708- 0.907) and 0.903 (0.838-0.969) for the training and internal validation sets, respectively. The AUC values for 3-year cancer-specific survival were 0.843 (0.725-0.961) and 0.923 (0.844-1.002) for the two sets. Calibration curves of both sets demonstrated a high level of consistency between the actual CSS and predicted probability. The decision curve analysis (DCA) curves indicated that the column diagram had a favorable net benefit in clinical practice. A total of 336 patients were included in the study, with 35 cancer-specific deaths and 69 postoperative recurrences. According to the line chart, the patients were divided into low-risk group (scoring 0-117) and high-risk group (scoring 119-284). Within the low-risk group, there were 16 tumor-specific deaths out of 282 cases and 36 postoperative recurrences out of 282 cases. In the high-risk group, there were 19 tumor-specific deaths out of 54 cases and 33 post-operative recurrences out of 54 cases. There were significant differences in progression-free survival (PFS) and cancer-specific survival (CSS) between the low-risk and high-risk groups (P < 0.000 1). CONCLUSION: A nomogram model predicting the 3-year CSS of non-metastatic T3a renal cell carcinoma patients was successfully constructed and validated in this study. This nomogram can assist clinicians in accurately assessing the long-term prognosis of such patients.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the postoperative renal function and oncologic outcomes of cystic renal cell carcinoma with partial nephrectomy, and to compared the single-center data on surgical outcomes with the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database. METHODS: This was a retrospective study that included the patients with cystic renal cell carcinoma who underwent partial nephrectomy in the Department of Urology, Peking University Third Hospital (PUTH) from 2010 to 2023. The clinical data and depicting baseline characteristics were collected. Renal dynamic imaging and the Chinese Coefficients for Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration (C-CKD-EPI) formulae were used to calculate the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR). The renal function curves over time were then plotted, and the patients were followed-up to record their survival status. Cases of cystic renal cell carcinoma in the SEER database between 2000 and 2020 were included, propensity score matching (PSM) was performed to balance the differences between SEER cohort and PUTH cohort, and the cancer-specific survival (CSS) curves for both groups were plotted and statistical differences were calculated by the Kaplan-Meier method. RESULTS: A total of 38 and 385 patients were included in the PUTH cohort and SEER cohort, respectively, and 31 and 72 patients were screened in each cohort after PSM. Of the baseline characteristics, only tumor size (P=0.042) was found to differ statistically between the two groups. There was no statistically significant difference between the two cohorts in terms of CSS after PSM (P=0.556). The median follow-up time in the SEER cohort was 112.5 (65, 152) months and a 10-year survival rate of 97.2%, while the PUTH cohort had a median follow-up of 57.0 (20, 1 172) months and a 10-year survival rate of 100.0%. There was no statistically significant difference between eGFR determined by preoperative renal dynamic imaging and the results of the C-CKD-EPI formulae based on creatinine estimation (P=0.073). There was a statistically significant difference in eGFR among the preoperative, short-term postoperative, and long-term postoperative (P < 0.001), which was characterized by the presence of a decline in renal function in the short-term postoperative period and the recovery of renal function in the long-term period. CONCLUSION: Partial nephrectomy for cystic renal cell carcinoma is safe and feasible with favorable renal function and oncologic outcomes.

BACKGROUND: Targeted therapy combined with immunotherapy is the current first-line treatment for metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC), but patients with tumor thrombus (TT) may suffer from lower limb edema or even sudden cardiac death, so the purpose of this study is to investigate the efficacy and safety of surgical treatment in patients with mRCC and TT and explore worse factors to affect the prognosis in this series of patients. PATIENTS AND METHODS: A total of 85 mRCC patients with TT who received cytoreductive nephrectomy and thrombectomy at our medical center from 2014 to 2023 are included. All patients received postoperative systemic therapy. Overall survival (OS) is defined as the time from surgery to death due to any reason or the last follow-up. Kaplan-Meier analysis was performed to evaluate OS and differences among groups were tested by log-rank. Multivariable Cox proportional hazards analysis was performed to ascertain independent relationships between clinicopathological factors and OS. RESULTS: The median age of patients was 58 years old. Eleven patients (12.9%) had no symptoms, 39 patients (45.9%) had local symptoms, 15 patients (17.6%) had systemic symptoms, and 20 patients (23.5%) had both. Mayo grade of TT was 0, 1, 2, 3, and 4 for 12, 27, 31, 7, and 8 patients respectively. Fifty-five patients had lung metastasis, 23 had bone metastasis, 16 had liver metastasis, 13 had adrenal metastasis, and 9 had lymph node metastasis. Of all patients, 17 patients had multiple metastases. The median operation time is 289 min and the median intraoperative hemorrhage is 800 ml. Twenty-eight patients experienced postoperative complications, 8 of which were serious complications of modified Clavien grade III or higher. The median OS of all patients was 33 months and median follow up time was 26 months. In multivariate analysis, systemic symptom (p = 0.00753), pathological type (p = 0.0166), sarcomatous degeneration (p = 0.0334), and perirenal fat infiltration (p = 0.0202) are independent predictors of OS. CONCLUSION: Cytoreductive nephrectomy and thrombectomy is relatively safe and effective for patients with mRCC accompanied by TT. In this series of patients, the worse prognosis is associated with systemic symptoms, non-clear cell carcinoma, sarcomatous degeneration and perirenal fat infiltration.

Children are susceptible to pneumonia, which affects their growth and development. Immune disorders and unrepaired alveolar mucosal epithelium following pneumonia cause chronic lung injury. The mechanism of chronic lung injury is unknown and lacks animal models for reference. Therefore, we developed a chronic lung injury young mouse model to simulate the pathological process of children. 3-week-old mice were intratracheal instillation of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) every other day for six weeks. Consequently, the histopathology showed damaged integrity of lung tissue, fibrosis, and abnormally distributed alveolar epithelial cells. The total protein concentration in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) was increased, alveolar epithelial type (AT) I cells were abnormal distribution, and AT II cells were reduced. The phosphorylation levels of IKBα and the expression levels of NF-κB p65 in lung tissue were up-regulated. In serum and BALF, the IL-6 was oversecretion, nitric oxide (NO) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) were perturbed secretion, oxidative stress imbalance. In addition, blood viscosity, plasma viscosity, and erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) indexes in hemorheology were increased. In conclusion, it is feasible to construct the mouse model of chronic lung injury, and AT I and AT â ¡ cells were imbalanced, which paves the way for further investigations on the pathogenesis of chronic lung injury and the efficacy of novel treatments.

AIM: To provide an overview of techniques for prevention, immediate diagnosis, and treatment strategies of intraoperative pulmonary embolism caused by renal tumor thrombus shedding. METHODS: A total of 290 patients admitted into our medical center from March 2015 to May 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. All patients underwent radical nephrectomy with tumor thrombectomy. Six patients were diagnosed as pulmonary embolism during the perioperative period, of which two patients had tumor thrombus shedding. One patient underwent thoracotomy and thrombectomy, one patient underwent interventional thrombectomy, and four patients underwent conservative treatment. All patients have gone through our diagnosis and strategy flow chart. Demographic data, tumor characteristics, tumor thrombus characteristics, and follow-up data were collected. RESULTS: In the preoperative risk factor assessment, of the 253 patients who entered the follow-up, 163 were women, 48 were older than 60 years old, and 83 had a duration of more than 2 months. In addition, 27 patients had tumor thrombus with bland thrombus, and 43 patients had floating tumor thrombus. 78 patients underwent postoperative anticoagulation after evaluation. The average follow-up time was 23.3 ± $\pm $ 8.6 months (range, 7-31 months). All patients were alive during the follow-up period. CONCLUSION: For acute pulmonary embolism during nephrectomy and tumor thrombectomy, management strategies can be used to deal with intraoperative emergencies and provide reference.

OBJECTIVES: To investigate perioperative clinicopathological predictors and establish a predictive nomogram for survival in patients with renal cell carcinoma and venous tumor thrombus undergoing nephrectomy and thrombectomy. METHODS: Patients with renal cell carcinoma and venous tumor thrombus undergoing nephrectomy and thrombectomy were included in the study between January 2014 and June 2020. Cox regression analysis was used for univariate and multivariate survival analyses. A predictive nomogram for survival was established and internally validated using bootstrap resampling method. RESULTS: A total of 228 patients were enrolled in this study. The median age was 60 years (interquartile range 53-66 years), consisting of 174 (76.3%) males and 54 (23.7%) females. The median follow-up time was 17.5 months (range 1-74 months), 26.8% (61 of 228) patients died of all causes. In multivariable analysis, hemoglobin less than the lower limit of normal (hazard ratio 1.73; 95% confidence interval 1.01-2.96; P = 0.045), sarcomatoid feature (hazard ratio 3.67; 95% confidence interval 1.97-6.82; P < 0.001), perirenal fat invasion (hazard ratio 1.80; 95% confidence interval 1.05-3.09; P = 0.033), histological subtype (hazard ratio 2.74; 95% confidence interval 1.39-5.41; P = 0.004), and metastasis at surgery (hazard ratio 1.71; 95% confidence interval 1.01-2.90; P = 0.047) were independently associated with overall survival. The result of internal validation presented that the predictive performance of the nomogram for survival measured by C-index was 0.77. CONCLUSIONS: We developed a predictive nomogram with well-internal validation for survival in patients with renal cell carcinoma and venous tumor thrombus, which can greatly promote risk stratification and treatment planning.

BACKGROUND: We aimed to compare the oncological outcomes between the oblique occlusion technique and the traditional technique for robot-assisted radical nephrectomy (RARN) with inferior vena cava (IVC) thrombectomy, and to explore the safety and effectiveness of the oblique occlusion technique. METHODS: Overall, 21 patients with renal cell carcinoma (RCC) and IVC tumor thrombus (TT) were admitted to our hospital from August 2019 to June 2020. All the patients underwent RARN with IVC thrombectomy, of which the IVC oblique occlusion technique was used in 11 patients and traditional occlusion technique was used in 10 patients. The oblique occlusion technique refers to oblique blocking from the upper corner of the right renal vein to the lower corner of the left renal vein using a vessel tourniquet or a vessel clamp (left RCC with IVCTT as an example). RESULTS: Compared with patients in the traditional group, those in the oblique group had lower serum creatinine at follow-up (3 month) (95 ± 21.1 vs. 131 ± 30.7 µmol/L, P = 0.03). There was no significant difference in operation time [149 (IQR 143-245) min vs. 148 (IQR 108-261) min, p = 0.86], IVC clamping time [18 (IQR 12-20) min vs. 20 (IQR 14-23) min, p = 0.41], and estimated intraoperative blood loss [300 (IQR 100-800) mL vs. 500 (IQR 175-738) mL, p = 0.51] between both groups. During a 16-month (range, 15-23 months) follow-up period, two cases progressed in the oblique group and three cases progressed in the traditional group. CONCLUSIONS: The modified IVC oblique occlusion technique procedure is relatively safe and effective in RARN with IVC thrombectomy. The IVC oblique occlusion technique may play a role in the protection of renal function.

PURPOSE: To explore the safety and effectiveness of delayed occlusion of the proximal inferior vena cava (DOPI) technique in retroperitoneal laparoscopic radical nephrectomy (LRN) and thrombectomy for renal tumor with level II-III venous tumor thrombus (VTT). MATERIALS AND METHODS: From August 2016 to October 2018, a total of 145 patients with renal tumor and VTT were admitted to our centre. Seventy-five patients underwent laparoscopic surgery, and 70 patients underwent open surgery. Among these patients, 17 patients underwent retroperitoneal LRN and thrombectomy with the DOPI technique. Clinical data were collected retrospectively, and a descriptive statistical analysis was conducted. RESULTS: All the patients successfully underwent retroperitoneal laparoscopic surgery. The mean operation time was 345.9 ± 182.9 min, the mean estimated blood loss was 466.7 ± 245.5 ml. Postoperative complications occurred in three patients, including two patients of Clavien grading system level IVa and one patient of level II. There were no complications related to carbon dioxide pneumoperitoneum, such as gas embolism, acidosis, and subcutaneous emphysema. During 21 months of median follow-up time, no local recurrence was found, and distant metastasis occurred in four patients. Cancer-specific death occurred in two patients. CONCLUSIONS: The DOPI technique is safe and feasible in the treatment of renal tumor and level II-III VTT. With the DOPI technique, the procedures of dissociating and exposing proximal inferior vena cava are simplified.

BACKGROUND : This study aimed to determine the prognostic value of preoperative blood parameters in renal cell carcinoma (RCC) and tumour thrombus (TT) patients that were surgically treated. METHOD: We retrospectively analysed clinicopathological data and blood parameters of 146 RCC and TT patients that were surgically treated. Univariate or multivariate Cox regression analyses were performed to determine the risk factors associated with progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS). Kaplan-Meier analysis and logistic regression were performed to study the risk factors. Receiver operating characteristic curves were applied to test improvements in the predictive accuracy of the established prognosis score. RESULTS: On univariate and multivariate analysis, anaemia (HR 2.873, P = 0.008) and lymph node metastasis (HR 4.811, P = 0.015) were independent prognostic factors linked to OS. Besides, thrombocytosis (HR 2.324, P = 0.011), histologic subtype (HR 2.835, P = 0.004), nuclear grade (HR 2.069, P = 0.033), and lymph node metastasis (HR 5.739, P = 0.001) were independent prognostic factors associated with PFS. Kaplan-Meier curves revealed that patients with anaemia exhibited worse OS than those without it (P = 0.0033). Likewise, patients with thrombocytosis showed worse PFS than those without it (P < 0.0001). Adding the anaemia and thrombocytosis to the SSIGN score improved its predictive accuracy related to OS and PFS. Preoperative anaemia was linked to more symptom at presentation (OR 3.348, P = 0.006), longer surgical time (OR 1.005, P = 0.001), more blood loss (OR 1.000, P = 0.018), more transfusion (OR 2.734, P = 0.004), higher thrombus level (OR 4.750, P = 0.004) and higher nuclear grade (OR 3.449, P = 0.001) while thrombocytosis was associated with more symptom at presentation (OR 7.784, P = 0.007). CONCLUSIONS: Preoperative anaemia and thrombocytosis were adverse prognostic factors in non-metastatic RCC patients with TT. Also, both preoperative anaemia and thrombocytosis can be clinically used for risk stratification of non-metastatic RCC and TT patients.

BACKGROUND: Retroperitoneal vascular leiomyosarcoma (RVLMS) is an extremely rare disease in clinical practice, and it has poor prognosis. This article is to explore the diagnosis and treatment of RVLMS and present our experience. METHODS: Data of RVLMS patients were continuously collected in our hospital from August 2018 to February 2020: two males and two females with a median age of 56 (min-max = 33-61) years were included. Patients in whom paraganglioma could not be excluded were asked to take phenoxybenzamine before surgery. A multi-disciplinary team (MDT) meeting had been held and surgery was recommended. The operation procedures varied based on the tumor location, shape, and stage, and the core steps were "exposure of the retroperitoneum and tumor, identification of vital blood vessels, blocking the bloodstream, complete removal of the tumor and tumor thrombus, and release of blood flow". A Satinsky clamp was used to partially block the blood vessels. Follow-up was conveyed by revisits and phone calls. RESULTS: One patient underwent open surgery, and three patients underwent laparoscopic surgery, one of whom underwent conversion to open surgery. The procedures were finished successfully, with a median operative time of 314.5 (min-max = 224-467) mins. The median amount of intraoperative bleeding was 550 (min-max = 200-1500) ml, and three patients had transfusion during the operation. The mass was irregular in shape, with a median maximum size of 7.45 (min-max = 4.2-10.7) cm, and the pathological examination confirmed RVLMS, which has spindle-shape, high mitotic activity and atypia. One week after the operation, the median serum creatinine level was 85 (min-max = 70-99) µmol/L. The median follow-up time was 16 (min-max = 13-21) months, and 1 case reported asymptomatic recurrence. CONCLUSION: Uncharacteristic manifestations and imaging features contribute to the problematic diagnosis of RVLMS. Comprehensive preoperative evaluation and careful surgical planning are essential. Multicenter research is needed in the future to reach a dominant consensus.

BACKGROUND: To analyze the influence of inferior vena cava (IVC) interruption for perioperative and oncological results in patients with renal cell carcinoma and tumor thrombus and summarize the surgical strategies of IVC interruption for different situations. METHODS: We retrospectively analyzed the clinical and pathological data of 103 patients in our center. Patients were divided into two groups with 32 cases (31.1%) underwent IVC interruption (Group 1) while 71 cases (68.9%) did not. For comparison of continuous variables, the Mann-Whitney U test was used. For comparison of categorical variables, Chi-square tests were used. A propensity score based matching method was used to eliminate possible bias. Kaplan-Meier plots were performed to evaluate the influence of IVC interruption on overall survival and cancer specific survival. All the statistical analyses were performed using SPSS 24. A P value < 0.05 was considered statistically significant. RESULTS: Among the 32 patients who underwent IVC interruption, the median age was 61 years and the median tumor size was 7.7 cm. There were 28 males and 23 tumors were on the right side. We successfully matched 29 patients who underwent IVC interruption to 29 patients without this procedure in 1:1 ratio. No significant differences existed in baseline characteristics between the groups. The comparison of perioperative data showed that patients who underwent IVC interruption had significantly longer median postoperative hospital stays (13 vs 9 days, P = 0.022) and a higher overall postoperative complication rate (79.3 vs 51.7%, P = 0.027). According to the side and shape of tumor thrombus, it could be divided into four categories. There were 15 cases (46.9%) with right filled-type tumor thrombus (RFTT), 8 cases (25.0%) with right non-filled-type tumor thrombus (RNFTT), 1 case (3.1%) with left filled-type tumor thrombus (LFTT) and 8 cases (25.0%) with left non-filled-type tumor thrombus (LNFTT). According to different categories, different surgical procedures were adopted. CONCLUSIONS: IVC interruption will increase the incidence of overall postoperative complications, but not the risk of major postoperative complications. Tumor thrombus should be divided into four categories, and different sides and shapes of renal tumor thrombus need different operative procedure of IVC interruption.

PURPOSE: To explore the effect of tumor thrombus growing against the direction of venous return (GADVR) tumor thrombus on the choice of surgical approach, the impact on the complexity of the surgery and the prognosis. METHODS: We retrospectively analyzed the clinicopathological data of 213 patients, who underwent surgery in a single center of Peking University Third Hospital between January 2016 and June 2020. For right renal cell carcinoma (RCC) and venous tumor thrombus (VTT), imaging revealed a filling defect in the left renal vein, which was significantly enhanced in enhanced imaging, suggesting that the tumor thrombus grew against the direction of venous return into the left renal vein. For left RCC and VTT, at least one of the left renal vein branches has tumor thrombus. The branches include the left adrenal vein, the left gonadal vein (testicular vein or ovarian vein), and the left ascending lumbar vein. The patients were divided into two groups according to whether they were GADVR tumor thrombus, and we compare the clinicopathological characteristics of GADVR tumor thrombus and non-GADVR tumor thrombus. Univariate and multivariate Cox regression analyses were performed to explore the risk factors that affect the prognosis of patients with RCC and VTT. Kaplan-Meier plots were conducted to evaluate the effect of GADVR on progression-free survival (PFS). RESULTS: Compared with non-GADVR tumor thrombus, patients with GADVR tumor thrombus had a higher proportion of open surgery (76.2% vs. 52.1%, P = 0.035), a higher proportion of tumor thrombus adhering to the inferior vena cava (IVC) vessel wall (81% vs. 45.8%, P = 0.002), a higher proportion of segmental resection of the IVC vessel wall (61.9% vs. 15.6%, P < 0.001); higher preoperative serum creatinine value (110.0 µmol/L vs. 91.0 µmol/L, P = 0.015), a higher proportion of tumor thrombus combined with bland thrombus (non-tumor thrombus) (57.1% vs. 19.8%, P < 0.001). In terms of surgical complexity, patients with GADVR tumor thrombus had a longer median operation time (379 min vs. 308 min, P = 0.038), more median surgical blood loss (1400 mL vs. 600 mL, P = 0.018), and more postoperative complications (52.4% vs. 30.7%, P = 0.045). Multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that GADVR tumor thrombus, symptoms, postoperative serum creatinine, distant metastasis, sarcomatoid feature, pathological type, lymph node dissection were independent risk factors for PFS. Patients with GADVR tumor thrombus's median survival time was 14.0 months, while patients with non-GADVR tumor thrombus were 32.0 months (P = 0.016). GADVR tumor thrombus is an independent risk factor for PFS in patients with RCC and VTT. CONCLUSION: GADVR tumor thrombus is a characteristic feature of tumor thrombus, with an incidence of 9.9%. It has a higher proportion of open surgery and higher surgical complexity, which is an independent risk factor for PFS.

BACKGROUND: To explore the influencing factors of perioperative renal function change and their relationship with prognosis on renal cell carcinoma (RCC) patients with tumor thrombus after nephrectomy and thrombectomy. METHODS: The clinical and pathological data of 135 patients with RCC and tumor thrombus, who underwent nephrectomy and thrombectomy at Peking University Third Hospital from May 2015 to July 2018, was retrospectively analyzed. Absolute change in estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) (ACE) and percent change in eGFR (PCE) were calculated by preoperative and postoperative renal function. Linear regression analysis was used to explore the influencing factors of ACE and PCE, and logistic regression analysis was used to explore the influencing factors of worse postoperative renal function [eGFR≤60 mL/(min × 1.73 m^2)]. Cancer-specific survival (CSS) was estimated by Kaplan-Meier method and multivariate Cox regression, which were used to explore the effect of ACE and PCE on prognosis. RESULTS: Of all the 135 patients, 101 patients (74.8%) were male and 34 patients (25.2%) were female. The mean preoperative eGFR was 73.9 ± 21.8 mL/(min × 1.73 m^2) and postoperative eGFR was 69.5 ± 25.2 mL/(min × 1.73 m^2). In multivariate linear regression analysis, preoperative eGFR (P < 0.001) and pathological type (P = 0.038) were significant predictive factors of ACE. In aspect of PCE, preoperative eGFR (P < 0.001) and pathological type (P = 0.002) were significant predictors. In multivariate logistic regression analysis, preoperative eGFR (P = 0.016) was the only risk factor of predicting worse postoperative renal function. During follow-up, 22 patients (16.3%) were dead due to RCC. According to ROC analysis, the cut off value of ACE and PCE was 13.9 and 0.16, respectively. ACE> 13.9 and PCE > 0.16 indicated worse CSS (P = 0.006 and P = 0.047, respectively). However, in multivariate Cox regression analysis of several related factors, perinephric tissues invasion (P = 0.001), sarcomatoid differentiation (P = 0.001) and ACE> 13.9 (P = 0.002) were significant prognostic factors for CSS. PCE > 0.16 seemed to be not (P = 0.055). CONCLUSION: We explored several clinicopathological risk factors of predicting renal function change and their relationship with prognosis of RCC patients with tumor thrombus after nephrectomy and thrombectomy. The renal function change, which was associated with preoperative eGFR and pathological type, was prognostic risk factor for CSS and ACE> 13.9 indicated the worse prognosis.

Laparoscopic partial nephrectomy and robot-assisted partial nephrectomy are attracting increased attention from urologists. They can achieve the same effect of oncology control as radical nephrectomy; moreover, they can offer better preservation of renal function, thus obtaining long-term living benefits. The indications are also expanding, making it possible for larger and more difficult tumors. Laparoscopic partial nephrectomy and robot-assisted partial nephrectomy can be performed by transperitoneal and retroperitoneal approaches, with their individual advantages and limitations. In addition, the renal tumor scoring systems have been widely used and studied in laparoscopic partial nephrectomy and robot-assisted partial nephrectomy. In -order to better preserve renal function, the zero-ischemia technique is widely used. The application of intraoperative imaging technology provides convenience and greater benefits. Besides, whether minimal invasive partial nephrectomy can be performed without stop antiplatelet treatment is still disputed. Clinicians perform substantial exploration and practice to achieve the "trifecta" of surgery: complete resection of the tumor, maximum protection of renal function, and no complications.
