Small renal masses in the elderly: Contemporary treatment approaches and comparative oncological outcomes of nonsurgical and surgical strategies
Over the last decades, there has been a significant stage migration in renal cell carcinoma and especially older patients are getting diagnosed more frequently with low stage disease, such as small renal masses ≤4 cm of size. Considering the particular risk profile of an older population, often pr...

| description | Over the last decades, there has been a significant stage migration in renal cell carcinoma and especially older patients are getting
diagnosed more frequently with low stage disease, such as small renal masses ≤4 cm of size. Considering the particular risk profile
of an older population, often presenting with a nonnegligible comorbidity profile and progressive renal dysfunction, treatment approaches
beyond aggressive radical surgical procedures have come to the fore. We sought to give a contemporary overview of the
available different treatment strategies for incidental small renal masses in an elderly population with the focus on comparative
oncological outcomes of nonsurgical and surgical modalities. |
