INVESTIGATION OF THE RATE OF BENIGN HISTOLOGY AND RELATED FACTORS IN CLINICAL STAGE T1 KIDNEY TUMORS
Öz
Objectives: To compare the relationship between a benign pathology of preoperative parameters of renal masses <7cm (T1) in diameter. To evaluate the prevalence and identify predictors of benign histopathology in renal masses smaller than 7 cm (T1 stage).
Materials and Methods: Patients who underwent radical nephrectomy (RN) or partial nephrectomy (PN) for renal masses < 7 cm (T1) at Ankara City Etlik Hospital, between January 2007 and June 2016 were evaluated retrospectively. Data including age, gender, smoking history, comorbidities (diabetes mellitus, hypertension, dyslipidemia, obesity), presentation symptoms or signs (hematuria, weight loss, hypertension), tumor size, location, laterality, the pattern of growth (endophytic/exophytic) and character (cystic/ solid) were collected.
Results: Overall, 243 patients underwent surgery for a renal tumor. Among these, 58 (23.8%) had benign, and 185 (76.2%) had malignant tumor histopathology. Female sex (63.8%) was significantly higher in the benign tumor group (p=0.004). There was no significant difference between the groups regarding age, tumor size, smoking history and comorbidities, laterality (left/right), presentation symptoms, tumor location (upper/middle/lower pole), the pattern of growth (endophytic/exophytic) and character (cystic/ solid) were observed pathological results to impact not significantly (p>0.05). No significant differences were observed between the groups in terms of age, tumor size, smoking history, comorbidities, laterality, presentation symptoms, tumor location, growth pattern, or tumor characteristics (p>0.05).
Conclusion: In our study, the female gender was associated with benign histopathology in small renal tumors. As a result, predictors before surgery may be considered due to the high rate of benign pathology of small renal masses.
