Clinicopathologic features associated with survival after cytoreductive nephrectomy for nonclear cell renal cell carcinoma.

ABSTRACT:

Objectives

To report the overall survival (OS) outcomes of patients with nonclear cell renal cell carcinoma (nccRCC) treated at our institution with a cytoreductive nephrectomy (CN) and better understand the clinical and pathological characteristics of the patients that respond best.

Material and methods

We queried our prospectively maintained database for patients who underwent CN for nccRCC between 1989 and 2018. Histology was reviewed by an expert genitourinary pathologist, and nccRCC tumors were subdivided into papillary, unclassified, chromophobe, and other histology. Baseline clinicopathology, treatments, and survival outcomes were recorded. Preoperative hematological parameters including the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) were analyzed. Significant univariate pr
