This multi-institutional retrospective study enrolled renal AML patients who underwent partial nephrectomy (PN) or total nephrectomy after receiving at least 1 month of pre-operative everolimus. Imaging evaluations were collected before and after treatment, along with demographic, surgical, and follow-up information. The primary outcome was tumor volume reduction of ≥25%, with additional outcomes including recurrence, perioperative outcomes, renal function, and safety.Results
