Clinically localized type 1 and 2 papillary renal cell carcinomas have similar survival outcomes following surgery
We aimed to determine incidence, pathologic findings, prognostic factors and clinical outcomes for patients with clinically localized papillary RCC.

Surgical Approaches to Early Stage Kidney Cancer
With the continued routine use of cross-sectional imaging, the incidence of early stage localized renal cell carcinoma (RCC) or the small renal mass continues to rise. Treatment options for localized RCC inclu...
