Activity: Talk or presentation types › Poster presentation

Description

Background. Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is the 10th most common cancer worldwide and accounts for 2% global cancer diagnoses. Although overall 5 year survival rate is high – 76%, treatment of RCC recurrence is challenging. After primary treatment RCC recurrence rate can reach 2-30%.. Aim. The aim of the study was to evaluate RCC recurrence rate after operative treatment and to distinguish recurrence risk factors. Methods. In the retrospective study overall, 251 patients were included, average age was 65, median 66, approximate 3:2 male to female ratio. RCC patients were enrolled who underwent surgical treatment in Pauls Stradiņš Clinical University Hospital from April 2018 to April 2022. Data were gathered about the tumour stage, grade and histological type (clear cell (ccRCC), papillary (pRCC) and chromophobe (chRCC) carcinoma). Follow up radiologic examinations were interpreted to evaluate renal cancer recurrence status. . Results. RCC recurrence was observed in 4% (N=10). Recurrence rate for ccRCC, pRCC and chRCC was 4.% (N=7), 5.3% (N=3) , 0% (N=0) respectively. A statistically significant difference between recurrence rate and higher T stage was detected. The results indicate that advanced T stage ( x2=49.405; p
