Background Whether nephroureterectomy (NU) provides survival benefits in patients with stage IV upper tract urothelial carcinoma (UTUC) remains unclear. We compared the effect of chemotherapy (CT) alone with that of CT combined with NU (CT + NU) on the overall survival (OS) of patients with stage IV nonmetastatic UTUC (nmUTUC) and metastatic UTUC (...

Purpose To evaluate the prognostic value of metabolic syndrome (MetS) in upper tract urothelial carcinoma (UTUC) patients based on propensity score matching (PSM) analysis. Patients and Methods A total of 573 patients with UTUC after radical nephroureterectomy were included at Peking University People’s Hospital from January 2007 to April 2021. Met...

Purpose: To compare the perioperative outcomes and oncological results of open, laparoscopic, and robotic radical nephroureterectomy (RNU) in patients with upper tract urothelial carcinoma (UTUC) and to analyze trends in the utilization of RNU. Methods: From 2017 to 2020, the records of 61, 185, and 119 patients who underwent open, laparoscopic, an...

Objective: To assess the prognostic value of preoperative blood-based inflammation biomarkers, including the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR), and lymphocyte-monocyte ratio (LMR), on the survival outcomes of patients with upper tract urothelial carcinoma (UTUC) following radical nephroureterectomy (RNU). Meth...

Following radical nephroureterectomy for upper tract urothelial carcinoma, bladder tumor recurrence is a common event occurring in up to 22-47% of cases within the first post-operative year. In this review, we summarize the current knowledge on predictors of bladder tumor recurrence after radical nephroureterectomy and methods for reducing the risk...

To evaluate biological characteristics and transitions of upper tract urothelial carcinoma (UTUC) through metachronous bladder tumors after radical nephroureterectomy (RNU), we conducted immunohistochemical (IHC) staining of tumor specimens of UTUC tumor origin, non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) and MIBC progressed after intravesical recur...

Background Kidney-sparing surgery (KSS) for upper tract urothelial carcinomas (UTUCs) has been gradually performed in selected patients beyond the recommendation of guidelines. However, there is still a lack of tools to evaluate postoperative local recurrence. Herein, a new nomogram was established to predict the local recurrence risk after KSS. Me...

Objective To evaluate the association between perioperative estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and postoperative oncological outcomes in patients with upper tract urothelial carcinoma (UTUC) treated with radical nephroureterectomy (RNU),and to evaluate the effect of sex on this association. Methods The medical records of patients with UTUC...

Upper tract urothelial carcinoma (UTUC) is a relatively rare disease that accounts for 5% to 10% of all urothelial carcinomas (UCs). Radical nephroureterectomy (RNU) with a bladder cuff is the current gold standard for the management of UTUC; however, endoscopic ablation is also an option for low-risk UTUC to preserve kidney function. Herein, we pr...
