Clinical course of patients with metastatic papillary renal cell carcinoma

2016
14591 Background: For a long time it has been discussed, whether patients (pts.) with metastatic papillary renal cell carcinoma(mRCC pap) demonstrate different behaviour compared to those with clear cell mRCC. Methods: Clinical data of 61 pts. with mRCC pap were retrospectively assessed at 8 treatment centres. Results: Median follow-up was 20 (1–114) months, median age at time of diagnosis was 62 (24–85) years. Men were affected predominantly (50/61 pts.; 82%). 21 pts. (34%) showed metastases at time of diagnosis. The remaining 40 pts. had metachroneous metastatic disease. Mean time to metastases development was 30.4 (3–143; median 16.5) months. Metastatic sites were: lung (37; 61%), bone (24; 38%), liver (20; 33%), lymph nodes (24; 38%). Local recurrences occurred in 17 pts. (28%). Others sites of metastatic disease were brain in 6 pts. (10%), peritoneal carcinosisin 5 pts. (8%) and others. A surgical approach was performed primarily in 11 pts. (18%): lung 2; local recurrence and lymphomas 7; liver 1; ...
