This study compared the outcomes of patients who received single fraction RRS with those who underwent open partial nephrectomy (OPN). The results showed that RRS is a viable alternative to OPN in patients unfit for surgery, with comparable oncological and functional outcomes.
Introduction High-dose local stereotactic robotic radiosurgery (RRS) is a non-invasive alternative to surgery in renal masses and selected patients. We have, so far, limited its use to the elderly and patients at high risk from surgery. In this study, we matched patients with renal tumors who were treated with single fraction RRS to patients who underwent open partial nephrectomy (OPN). Methods Between January 2009 and December 2017, we included 571 consecutive patients undergoing OPN and 99 patients who underwent RRS in this retrospective analysis. Patients had to have a follow-up of at least six months and we were able to match 35 with a propensity score. Matching criteria were Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) status, age, clinical tumor, nodes, and metastases (TNM), and tumor diameter. Tumor response, renal function, survival, and adverse events were evaluated every three months until progression or death. Results Median age was 65 years for RRS (range 58-75) and 71 (range 56-76) for OPN (p=0.131). Median diameter of renal tumors was 2.8 cm (range 2.4-3.9) for RRS and 3.5 cm (2.8-4.5) for OPN, p=0.104. Median follow-up was 28.1 months (range 6.0-78.3 months). Local tumor control nine months after RRS and OPN was 98% (95% CI: 89-99%). Renal function remained stable with a median creatinine clearance (Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration (CKD-EPI)) at baseline of 76.8mlmin/1.73m(2) (range 25.3-126.3) and 70.3ml/min/1.73m(2)(range 18.6-127.3) at follow-up (p=0.89). Median overall survival was not reached. No difference in overall survival (OS) was seen in RRS compared to OPN (p=0.459). Conclusions Single fraction RRS is an alternative to OPN in patients unfit for surgery. Oncological and functional results are comparable to those of OPN. Further studies are needed to determine long-term results and limits of RRS in this setting and in younger patients.
