Definitions• Vast majority of RCC patients are unilateral,
unifocal– 4-25% who initially present unifocal, unilateral go onto
develop multiple renal masses1
• Multifocal = >1 tumor in a single kidney– 90% of multifocal are also bilateral– 3-11% clinically detected; up to 25% on path8,11-15
– Papillary RCC seems to have highest incidence6;7;16;17
• Bilateral = at least 1 tumor in both kidneys– >50% with bilateral tumors also multifocal2-4

DefinitionsEnucleation of the tumor:Cut out tumor leaving unaffected kidney tissue in place
Wide Margin of Resection of the tumor:Remove a rim of unaffected kidney tissue surrounding the tumor

VHL Renal Surgical History
• Early papers report risk of ccRCC in VHL of >70%
• Onset of renal tumors occurs earlier than non-hereditary RCC (40 vs 64)
• Original treatment paradigm for bilateral renal tumors bilateral RNx and transplant
• NSS surgery was pioneered as a reaction to this original treatment strategy– Began in late 1980s early 1990s

Hereditary Renal Cancer • Despite controversy around partial
nephrectomy, absolute indications exist– Hereditary renal cancer– Solitary kidney– Bilateral tumors
• Long-term studies show similar oncologic outcomes regardless of radical vs partial nephrectomy for small renal masses
• Hereditary renal cancers present unique challenges
![Page 8: Surgical Management of VHL- related Renal Cancers · 2014/10/18 · Surgical Management of VHL-related Renal Cancers Adam R. Metwalli, M.D. Urologic Oncology Branch National Cancer](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022071023/5fd85662b7985a51c81784a9/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Hereditary Renal Cancer Phenotypes• VHL – mutation of VHL tumor
suppressor gene on Chromosome 3, locus 3p25.1– Clear cell RCC (25-60% of
affected patients)– Pheochromocytoma– Pancreatic cysts and
neuroendocrine tumors– CNS hemangioblastomas– Cystadenomas (epididymis,
mesosalpynx)– Autosomal dominant

VHL Surgical Principles
• Active surveillance • 3cm rule• enucleation • “Reset the clock”

Surgical Margins in PNx• DOGMA: 2cm margin 1cm
margin• Novick et al (Urology 2002, 60:993-997)
• Conclusion: width of resection margin after NSS does not correlate with long term disease progression.
• Fuhrman grade and TNM stage more important
• “a millimeter is a mile…”

Surgical Margins: do they matter?
• Literature review using nephron-sparing, partial nephrectomy, margin
• PSM = 0-7% in OPNx• PSM = 0.7-4% in LPNx• PSM = 3.9-5.7% in RPNx• Complete tumor removal is the only factor• PSM and high grade tumors increase risk of local
recurrence• Vast majority of patients will not recur despite PSM• Frozen section offers little benefit over surgeons

Rationale for Pushing the Envelope
• Between 1989-2010• Repeat renal surgery patients at NCI evaluated• Costs calculated for RRS• 33 patients underwent RRS on solitary kidney• Hypothetical cohort of uncomplicated
nephrectomy, fistula placement, dialysis• Medicare reimbursement
![Page 24: Surgical Management of VHL- related Renal Cancers · 2014/10/18 · Surgical Management of VHL-related Renal Cancers Adam R. Metwalli, M.D. Urologic Oncology Branch National Cancer](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022071023/5fd85662b7985a51c81784a9/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Rationale for Pushing the Envelope• 45% complication rate• 87% maintained
adequate renal function• 96% metastasis-free• Cost benefit realized at
0.68 years after surgery
• Benefit persists even calculating 50% underestimation of surgical costs
• HD cost estimated at $35,000/year (£18421/year)
