Renal function recovery after radical nephroureterectomy for upper tract urothelial carcinoma.

ABSTRACT: PURPOSE:To understand the longitudinal renal function trends in patients undergoing radical nephroureterectomy (RNU) and identify clinicopathologic characteristics associated with estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) recovery. METHODS:147 patients were available for analysis. Longitudinal eGFR trends were assessed by plotting each patient's eGFR measurements over time. The patient population was dichotomized using eGFR < 60 ml/min/1.73 m2 versus ? 60 ml/min/1.73 m2. Cumulative incidence and competing risk regression analysis were used to estimate recovery of postoperative eGFR to the preoperative level and identify clinicopathologic characteristics associated with eGFR recovery. RESULTS:Median age was 68.7 years and median preoperative eGFR was 55.9 ml/min/1.73 m2. 63.6% were male and 95.8% were white. The cumulative incidence of eGFR recovery was significantly higher in patients with baseline eGFR < 60 ml/min/1.73 m2 compared to those with baseline eGFR ? 60 ml/min/1.73 m2 (p = 0.01), with recovery rates at 2 years of 56.6% vs. 27.7%, respectively. Multivariable analysis revealed that preoperative hydronephrosis (HR 1.80) and preoperative eGFR < 60 ml/min/1.73 m2 (HR 1.87) were associated with increased chance of eGFR recovery. CONCLUSION:Over half of patients with preoperative eGFR < 60 ml/min/1.73 m2 achieved eGFR recovery within the first 3 years after RNU, and hydronephrosis was a significant predictor of recovery. These findings should be considered when counseling patients regarding chronic kidney disease progression after RNU and timing of perioperative chemotherapy for high risk tumors.

Project description:Cigarette smoking is a common risk factor for developing upper tract urothelial carcinoma (UTUC).To assess the impact of cigarette smoking status, cumulative smoking exposure, and time from cessation on oncologic UTUC outcomes in patients treated with radical nephroureterectomy (RNU).A total of 864 patients underwent RNU at five institutions. The median follow-up in this retrospective study was 50 mo. Smoking history included smoking status, quantity of cigarettes per day (CPD), duration in years, and years from smoking cessation. The cumulative smoking exposure was categorized as light-short-term (? 19 CPD and ? 19.9 yr), moderate (all combinations except light-short-term and heavy-long-term), and heavy-long-term (? 20 CPD and ? 20 yr).RNU with or without lymph node dissection. No patient received neoadjuvant chemotherapy.Univariable and multivariable logistic regression and competing risk regression analyses assessed the effects of smoking on oncologic outcomes.A total of 244 patients (28.2%) never smoked; 297 (34.4%) and 323 (37.4%) were former and current smokers, respectively. Among smokers, 87 (10.1%), 331 (38.3%), and 202 (23.4%) were light-short-term, moderate, and heavy-long-term smokers, respectively. Current smoking status, smoking ? 20 CPD, ? 20 yr, and heavy-long-term smoking were associated with advanced disease (p values ? 0.004), greater likelihood of disease recurrence (p values ? 0.01), and cancer-specific mortality (p values ? 0.05) on multivariable analyses that adjusted for standard features. Patients who quit smoking ? 10 yr prior to RNU did not differ from never smokers regarding advanced tumor stages, disease recurrence, and cancer-specific mortality, but they had better oncologic outcomes then current smokers and those patients who quit smoking <10 yr prior to RNU. The study is limited by its retrospective nature.Cigarette smoking is significantly associated with advanced disease stages, disease recurrence, and cancer-specific mortality in patients treated with RNU for UTUC. Current smokers and those with a heavy and long-term smoking exposure have the highest risk for poor oncologic outcomes. Smoking cessation >10 yr prior to RNU seems to mitigate some detrimental effects. These results underscore the need for smoking cessation and prevention programs.
