Surgery, although the therapy of choice for locally advanced renal tumors, is still controversial as the treatment for metastases. The role of surgery in the management of patients with pulmonary, bony, and liver metastasis is one of the subject matters discussed in this book. Our results with series of patients undergoing resection of metastases from the lung, bone, and liver show that surgery may be appropriate in selected patients with a good performance status, although most of them certainly cannot be cured by this procedure alone, i.e., in the absence of effective adjuvant therapies. As recent developments show, new strategies for immunotherapy of renal cell carcinoma represent a modest advance over traditional approaches in the treatment of this cancer, such as chemo- and radiotherapy. Clinical trials employing recombinant interferon-a and interleukin 2 produced response rates in up to 30% of patients treated, as evidenced by the European Immunotherapy Trials Program. The adverse reactions and the lack of efficacy in the majority of patients warrants the search for new immunotherapeutic approaches.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Renal Cell Carcinoma: Clinical Management provides a comprehensive, state-of-the art review of this field, and will serve as a valuable resource for clinicians, surgeons and researchers with an interest in kidney cancer. The volume reviews new data about risk factors for the disease, profiles the new staging system for renal cell carcinoma (RCC), highlights our current understanding of familial syndromes of RCC and their molecular genetics, and provides new perspectives about imaging of renal tumors. For localized disease, a greater appreciation of nephron-sparing approaches and the importance of preservation of renal function is discussed in detail. Advances in surgical techniques are highlighted. For metastatic disease, the molecular biology of kidney cancer is reviewed in a concise and understandable manner, including the data that has fostered novel targeted approaches that have revolutionized management. The several landmark phase III targeted therapy trials published in the last few years are placed in context with respect to current management. Integration of surgery and systemic therapy through cytoreductive and consolidative approaches has yielded provocative data that promises to further advance the field, and major advances in this domain are also be discussed.

Download or read book Diagnosis and Surgical Management of Renal Tumors written by Michael A. Gorin and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-11-09 with total page 319 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is the most common primary malignancy of the kidney, with an estimated 64,000 new cases diagnosed each year in the United States. Worldwide, this figure approaches 270,000 annual incident cases. At the time of initial presentation, 80% of patients with RCC will be diagnosed with a tumor localized the kidney. The majority of these lesions will be small (i.e. ≤4 cm) and potentially curable with either partial or radical nephrectomy. In recent decades, the rate of incidentally detected small renal tumors has risen substantially due the increasing use of cross-sectional imaging performed across the field of medicine. This rise in the incident number of localized renal tumors has unfortunately not resulted in a corresponding decrease in cases of metastatic RCC. This observation has led to our understanding that a significant proportion of incidentally detected renal tumors are of low malignant potential and may be safely managed with alternatives to surgery such active surveillance and thermo ablation. The use of these less invasive management approaches, however, must be balanced by the reality that upon spreading beyond the confines of the kidney, RCC is almost always incurable. Thus, when selecting a management strategy for a given patient, one must employ a risk-adapted approach that includes knowledge of a tumor’s histology and metastatic potential. In each patient, the goal of management should be to minimize the risk of progression to metastatic disease while preserving renal function and minimizing morbidity. This text provides a contemporary review of the diagnosis and surgical management of RCC. It opens with chapters on the pathology, radiology, and genetics of RCC. It then covers the risk stratification of renal tumors utilizing renal mass biopsy as well as non-invasive novel imaging-based scoring systems. Next, the surgical management of small and locally advanced renal tumors as well as the role of surgery in cases of metastatic RCC is reviewed. In addition, alternative approaches to surgery including active surveillance and ablative techniques are reviewed. Other chapters detail the emerging role of neoadjuvant and adjuvant systemic therapy in patients who are at high risk of progression to metastatic disease. Finally, the text covers the post-operative surveillance of patients with RCC as well as a summary of contemporary guidelines on the management of this disease. Diagnosis and Surgical Management of Renal Cell Carcinoma will serve as a comprehensive resource for physicians and researchers interested in RCC. All chapters will be written by experts in the field and will include the most up to date scientific and clinical information.

Download or read book Integrating Multidisciplinary Treatment for Advanced Renal Cell Carcinoma written by Rana R. McKay and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-12-03 with total page 418 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The field of kidney cancer has dramatically evolved over the past several years due to notable advances. Most importantly, systemic treatment options have expanded to include combination regimens for advanced disease and expansion of treatment options in the adjuvant setting. Additionally, surgical management has evolved towards nephron-sparing and minimally invasive approaches for treatment of localized disease; the role of surgery and focal therapy are changing for patients with advanced disease. While kidney cancer is a common malignancy in both men and women worldwide, mortality has improved over time given advancements in modern oncology. This book provides a comprehensive, state-of-the art review of the field, and serves as a valuable resource for clinicians, surgeons and researchers with an interest in kidney cancer. The book reviews new data about systemic treatment options for patients with advanced disease including strategies in the treatment naïve and post frontline setting. It covers new data regarding perioperative and adjuvant treatments for patients with localized disease and will highlight novel targets and treatments under development. Integration of surgery and systemic therapy through cytoreductive and consolidative approaches has yielded provocative data that promises to further advance the field, and major advances in this domain will also be discussed. Additionally, the book discusses the evolving role of alternative focal approaches including radiation therapy for patients with advanced disease. This text serves as a very useful resource for physicians and researchers dealing with and interested in this challenging malignancy. Specifically, urologists, medical oncologists, radiation oncologists, basic science and translational researchers with interest in RCC, fellows in urologic oncology, upper level residents training in urology and medical oncology, and pharmaceutical partners interested in RCC will benefit most significantly. Integrating Multidisciplinary Treatment for Advanced Renal Cell Carcinoma will provide a concise yet comprehensive summary of strategies for sequencing therapies that will help guide patient care and stimulate investigative efforts.
