Renal Cell Carcinoma
• Prevelance – 2-3% of adult malignancies – Rose 2% annually last 65yrs
• Average age 65 • ACS estimate 2012: New cases: 64,770, Deaths: 13,570. • Male:female 3:2 • African-American 10-20% higher • Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is the tenth leading cause of
cancer deaths in males in the United States. • Overall, 5-year relative survival increased from 51% to
67% between 1975-1977 and 1996-2004.
-
• Develop from the proximal convoluted tubules • Structural alterations of the short arm of chromosome
3 (3p) • Histology
– Clear cell (most common) – Papillary – Chromophobe – Collecting duct – Unclassified
• Sarcomatoid features- no longer a separate entity but can be found in all histologic subtypes- poor prognosis
Pathophysiology
-
Pathophysiology
• Very vascular/ angiogenesis • Poor response to chemo,
radiation • Limited response to
immunotherapy • Surgical tumor- most
definitive form of treatment
• Spontaneous regression- case reports
-
Presentation
• Triad – Flank pain
– Gross hematuria
– Palpable abdominal mass
• Incidental – Imaging for other reasons (abd pain, etc.)
• Paraneoplastic syndromes (Internist’s tumor) – Hypercalcemia, hypertension, polycythemia, Stauffer’s
syndrome (nonmetastatic hepatic dysfunction), elevated ESR
-
Risk Factors
• Tobacco • Obesity • Hypertension • Acquired renal cystic disease
– End-Stage Renal Failure- 5 to 20 fold – Renal transplant recipients (native kidneys)
• Familial (4% of all RCC) – vHL, hereditary papillary RCC, hereditary RCC, Birt-Hogg-Dube (familial
oncocytoma)
• Von Hippel-Lindau syndrome – Retinal angiomas, CNS hemangioblastomas, pheochromocytoma, pancreatic
cysts/islet cell tumors, cystadenoma of epididymis, inner ear tumors, 40% of VHL pts develop RCC
• Tuberous sclerosis – autosomal dominant disorder (adenoma sebaceum- distinctive skin lesion, epilepsy, mental retardation, renal cysts, AMLs)
-
Diagnosis
• Imaging – CT- c/s IV contrast
• solid, enhancing >15 HU. HU below -20 indicate fat (Angiomyolipoma)
– US- cyst vs solid
– MRI- enhance with Gadolinium
– Arteriogram- historical, rarely used
– DMSA (dimercaptosuccinic acid) renal scan • psuedotumor (hypertrophied column of Bertin, renal
dysmorphism, unusually shaped kidney)
-
Solid, Enhancing
-
Angiomyolipoma
-
Solid vs Cystic
-
Benign cyst vs Cystic RCC
• Bosniak classification – I: most common (1/3 to 1/2 of >50y/o), zero risk of
CA, surveillance not needed, rarely symptomatic
– II: thin septa, thin calcifications, no enhancement, hyperdense with no enhancement, 0-5% risk of CA, periodic surveillance
– III: thick/irregular septa, thick/irregular calcifications, mild/mod heterogeneity, no enhancement, 50% risk of CA, surgical excision
– IV: thick/nodular areas, marked heterogeneity, enhancement, 75-90% risk of CA, surgical excision

Bosniak IV
-
Diagnosis
• Radiographic- CT/ MRI- solid, heterogeneous, enhancing mass
– Cancer till proven otherwise
• 80% of solid tumors are malignant
• Cytology, ureteroscopy- if mass is central and concern for Urothelial CA (TCC)
-
Biopsy
• Traditionally- rarely done – Concern of tumor seeding, bleeding, infection, AV fistula, false-negatives
(difficult to distinguish RCC, adenoma, oncocytoma) – RCC is surgically treated, no other definitive treatments
• Concern of lymphoma, metastasis (from lung, breast, GI, melanoma), abscess
• Contemporary series – Smaller gauge needles, better image guidance, better histopathology – Seeding
-
Metastatic Evaluation
• CT abd/pelvis- liver, adrenal gland, LN
• CXR- lungs (CT if indicated)
• Chemistries (CBC, CMP/LFTs, LDH)
• MRI- renal vein/ IVC tumor thrombus
• Bone scan (pain, elevated alkaline phosphatase)
• CT/MRI of brain- if clinically indicated
• PET scan- role remains to be proven
-
TNM Staging (2010)
• TNM- American Joint Committee on Cancer- 7th Edition 2010- Changes from 6th Edition 2002
• T2 lesions have been divided into T2a (greater than 7 cm but less than or equal to 10 cm) and T2b (>10 cm).
• Ipsilateral adrenal involvement is reclassified as T4 if contiguous invasion and M1 if not contiguous. (previously T3a)
• Renal vein involvement is reclassified as T3a. (previously T3b)
• Nodal involvement is simplified to N0 versus N1. (previously N1-single, N2-more than one)

Primary Tumor (T)
TX - Primary tumor cannot be assessed
T0 - No evidence of primary tumor
T1a - Tumor 4 cm in greatest dimension, limited to the kidney
T1b - Tumor > 4 cm but 7 cm in greatest dimension, limited to the kidney
T2a - Tumor > 7 cm but 10 cm in greatest dimension, limited to the kidney
T2b - Tumor > 10 cm, limited to the kidney
T3a - Tumor grossly extends into renal vein or its segmental (muscle-containing) branches, or tumor invades perirenal and/or renal sinus fat but not beyond Gerota’s fascia
T3b - Tumor grossly extends into vena cava below the diaphragm
T3c - Tumor grossly extends into vena cava above the diaphragm or invades the wall of the vena cava
T4 - Tumor invades beyond Gerota’s fascia (including contiguous extension into ipsilateral adrenal gland)

Prognostic Indicators
• Stage – Tumor size, venous involvement, adrenal invasion – Nodal involvement
• Grade – Fuhrman
• Tumor necrosis • Microvascular invasion • Sarcomatoid features • Collecting system invasion • Symptoms and Performance Status
-
• T1 lesions – 20% are benign
– Potentially aggressive variant is only observed in 20-30% of all RCCs in this size range
– 234 pts (8 studies) mean 2.6 cm - growth 0.28 cm /yr
– Metastatic progression 286 pts- 3 mets (1%)
• Elderly
• Decreased life expectancy
• Comorbidities that would increase the risk of interventions
• Lack of curative salvage therapies if metastases develop
• Possible loss of window of opportunity for NSS
• Substantial limitations of the current AS literature
Treatment- Surveillance
-
• Types – Cryotherapy (freezing)
• Liquid nitrogen or argon used to form an iceball that disrupts the cell membrane
– RadioFrequency Ablation (RFA)- (heating) • High-frequency (460-500 kHz) alternating current that
produces resistive friction that is converted to heat causing cell destruction
• Approaches – Laparoscopic
– Percutaneous (US, CT guided)
Treatment- Thermal Ablation
-
RFA vs Cryoablation
• Risks/ complications – Bleeding, infection, urine leak/fistula, recurrence
– Higher recurrence rate than conventional surgery
• Local tumor progression (meta-analysis 1375pts) – RFA vs cryo: 12.9 vs 5.2%
– Repeat ablation treatment- RFA vs cryo: 8.5 vs 1.3%
– Overall progession to mets disease 1.8%
-
Radio Frequency Ablation
-
Treatment-Surgery
• Radical Nephrectomy – Traditional standard of care for RCC (open, lap)
– Laparoscopic recommended over open technique
– Independent risk factor in developing CKD
• Nephron-Sparing Surgery (Partial Nephrectomy) – Traditionally used for solitary kidney, CKD, Bilateral
Disease (when RN would render pt on dialysis)
– Equivalent oncologic outcomes in T1 disease
– Open, Laparoscopic, Robotic
– NSS now recommended for T1a, some T1b
-
Treatment Surgery-NSS Principles
• Good surgical margin
• Minimize ischemia time
– Warm vs cold
– Clamp, selective clamp, no clamp
• Preservation of renal parenchyma
• Reconstruction
– Closure of collecting system
– Hemostasis
-
Surgery (Robotic)
• 3-D, High Definition Imaging, 10x magnification • Laparoscopic Wristed Instrumentation
– Precision, no tremors, greater range of motion
• Quicker Learning curve over traditional laparoscopy
• Offers advantages of complex surgical techniques with minimally invasive benefits – Dissection of renal hilum
• renal vascular anamoly- 25-35%
– Reconstruction of collecting system, closure of renal defect, hemostasis
-
Treament-Surgery (Robotic)
• Robotic Partial Nephrectomy – Series of 450 cases
• EBL= 213 ml
• Operative time= 188 min
• Ischemia time= 20 min
• 8% required transfusion
• 1.6% had urine leak
• Average tumor size 2.9cm
• 2 positive margins – Re-resected
Spana, et al, J Urology, August 2011
-
Follow-up
• Recurrences
– 20-30% have relapses
– Lung- most common site- 50-60%
– Median time 1-2 yrs, most within 3yrs
• Adjuvant Therapy
– Not shown to reduce recurrences
– Not recommended
– Clinical trials
-
AUA Guidelines for Renal Masses 2009
• Nephron-sparing surgery (NSS) should be considered in all patients with a clinical T1 renal mass as an overriding principle. – T1a- standard is Partial Nephrectomy – T1b- standard is Radical or Partial Nephrectomy – Equivalent oncologic control as Radical Nephrectomy – Increased risk of CKD associated with RN – Direct correlation between CKD and morbid cardiovascular
events and mortality
• Radical Nephrectomy is used only when NSS is not feasible or advisable (based on size, location, surgeon judgment)
• Laparoscopic approach is the standard for RN
-
AUA Guidelines for Renal Masses 2009
• Active surveillance is a reasonable option for the management of localized renal masses (less than 3-4cm)
– Should be discussed with all patients
– Primary consideration for patients with decreased life expectancy or extensive comorbidities that would make them high risk for intervention
-
AUA Guidelines for Renal Masses 2009
• Thermal ablation (cryoablation or RFA)
– High surgical risk who wants active treatment and accepts the need for long-term radiographic surveillance after treatment.
– Increased risk of local recurrence vs surgery
– Potential need for reintervention
– Lack of well proven radiographic parameters
– Usually for tumors
-
NCCN Guidelines Version 2.2012
• Suspicious mass – H&P
– CBC, CMP, LDH
– CT or MRI c/s IV contrast
– Chest Imaging
– Bone scan, if clinically indicated
– Brain MRI, if clinically indicated
– Consider urine cytology, ureteroscopy- if urothelial carcinoma suspected (eg central mass)
– Consider needle biopsy, if clinically indicated
-
NCCN Guidelines Version 2.2012
• Stage IA (
-
NCCN Guidelines Version 2.2012
• Stage II, III – Radical Nephrectomy
• Stage IV – Potentially surgically resectable solitary metastatic site
• Nephrectomy + surgical metastasectomy
– Potentially surgically resectable primary with multiple metestatic sites • Cytoreductive nephrectomy in select patients prior to systemic
therapy
– Medically or surgically unresectable • Clinical trial • Chemotherapy, Immunotherapy • Best supportive care
-
NCCN Guidelines Version 2.2012
• Follow-up for Stage I, II, III
– Observation or Clinical trial
– Every 6mo for 2y, then annually for 5y:
• H&P
• CMP, LDH
– At 2-6mo, then as indicated:
• Chest and abdominal imaging
-
NCCN Guidelines Version 2.2012 Surgical Considerations
• Nephron-sparing surgery – T1a, selected T1b – Solitary kidney, renal insufficiency, bilateral renal masses,
familial renal cell
• Open, laparoscopic, or robotic techniques for radical and partial Nx
• Regional lymph node dissection is optional, but recommended for adenopathy (preop imaging or intraop)
• Adrenal gland resection may be omitted if uninvolved and tumor is not high risk on basis of size and location
• Special teams may be required for extensive IVC involvement
-
NCCN Guidelines Version 2.2012 Surgical Considerations
• Observation or Ablative techniques – Considered for T1 who are not surgical candidates – Biopsy can be done to obtain/confirm Dx of malignancy
and guide surveillance and thermal ablation – Rigorous comparison with surgical resection has not been
done – Thermal ablative techniques are associated with a higher
local recurrence rate then conventional surgery
• Generally, candidates for cytoreductive nephrectomy prior to sytemic therapy: – Excellent performance status (ECOG PS
-
Predictors of short survival
• Poor-prognosis if >= 3 predictors
– LDH > 1.5 times upper limit of normal
– Hgb < lower limit of normal
– Corrected serum Calcium > 10mg/dl
– Interval of less than a year from original diagnosis to the start of systemic therapy
– Karnofsky performance score = 2 sites of organ metastasis
