RESUMEN
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the clinical and pathological characteristics of cystic renal tumors in our center. MATERIAL AND METHODS: A retrospective review of 239 nephrectomies is performed comparing the clinical and pathological variables of cystic tumors with those of solid renal tumors. Survival outcomes are analyzed in both groups. RESULTS: Our experience shows that cystic renal tumors behave like solid renal tumors, with no differences in survival shown. The variables studied show statistically significant differences in histological grade and number of tumors, with cystic tumors having a lower histological grade and being more often multiple in number. CONCLUSIONS: The behavior of cystic renal tumors is no different than that of solid renal tumors.

Objetivo: Valorar las características clínicas y patológicas de los tumores renales quísticos tratados en nuestro centro. Material y métodos: Se realiza una revisión retrospectiva de 239 nefrectomías comparando las variables clínico-patológicas de los tumores quísticos con los tumores renales sólidos. Se analiza la supervivencia en ambos grupos. Resultados: Los tumores renales quísticos se comportan en nuestra experiencia como los tumores renales sólidos, sin presentar diferencias en la supervivencia. Las variables estudiadas muestran diferencias estadísticamente significativas en el grado histológico y la multiplicidad, siendo los tumores quísticos de menor grado y más frecuentemente múltiples. Conclusiones: El comportamiento de los tumores renales quísticos no es diferente al de los sólidos
