Abstract:
Objective:To compare the therapeutic effects of partial nephrectomy (PN) and cryoablation (CA) in patients with stage cT 1N 0M 0 renal cell carcinoma (RCC). Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on clinical data of patients with stage cT 1N 0M 0 RCC who underwent CA and PN treatment at The First Affiliated Hospital of Naval Medical University and Shanghai Ninth People's Hospital between March 2011 and December 2019. There were 50 cases in the CA group (36 from The First Affiliated Hospital of Naval Medical University and 14 from the Shanghai Ninth People's Hospital), and 1 323 cases in the PN group (all from The First Affiliated Hospital of Naval Medical University). PN included open surgery, laparoscopic surgery, or robotic surgery performed under general anesthesia through the abdominal or retroperitoneal approach. CA included laparoscopic surgery under general anesthesia and percutaneous treatment guided by CT or ultrasound under local anesthesia. Propensity score matching was performed based on baseline data of the patients to obtain balanced samples between the two groups using a 1∶2 nearest-neighbor matching method. After matching, comparisons were made between the two groups in terms of perioperative conditions, overall survival (OS), and recurrence-free survival (RFS). Results:After PSM, patient distributions were closely balanced in baseline data such as gender (male/female: 28/19 cases in CA group and 58/36 cases in PN group), age [66.0(53.0, 75.0) years vs. 59.5(50.0, 69.3) years], body mass index[ (24.1 ± 6.4) kg/m 2 vs. (24.1 ± 3.1) kg/m 2], Charlson comorbidity index [1(0, 2) vs. 1(0, 2)], history of malignant tumors [19.1% (9/47) vs. 17.0% (16/94)], preoperative estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) [85.2(65.5, 97.1) ml/(min·1.73m 2) vs. 87.0(73.4, 100.4) ml/(min·1.73m 2)], and R. E.N.A.L. score [6(5, 7) vs. 7(6, 8)] between CA(n=47) and PN(n=94) group. There were significant differences in operative time [97.5(81.2, 117.5) min vs. 145.0(110.2, 185.0) min, P<0.001], estimated blood loss [85.0(50.0, 100.0) ml vs. 100.0(75.0, 200.0)ml, P=0.021], length of hospital stay [3.0(2.0, 4.0) days vs. 7.6(5.0, 9.0) days, P<0.001] between the CA and the PN group. No significant differences were observed in the incidence of postoperative complications [4.3% (2/47) vs. 5.3% (5/94), P=0.784], the eGFR within one week after surgery [83.7(65.6, 106.6) ml/(min·1.73m 2) vs. 83.2(66.7, 97.7) ml/(min·1.73m 2), P=0.645], the median follow-up time [ 93 (67, 126) months vs. 85 (68, 139) months, P=0.955], the RFS rate[81.8% vs. 96.8%, P=0.074], or the OS rate [85.7% vs. 97.8%, P=0.190] between the CA and the PN group. Conclusions:For patients with cT 1N 0M 0 stage RCC, CA and PN demonstrate comparable oncologic treatment efficacy, while CA offering the advantages of shorter surgical time, shorter hospital stay, and less blood loss.
