Renal Cell Carcinoma: Objectives
3
Hypernephroma or Grawitz's tumor90% of all renal malignancies~338,000 new cases worldwide in 2012
Cancer research UKIn the US, incidence has risen consistently
over timeIncreased cross sectional imaging and incidental
detection>1/2 of all RCCs diagnosed incidentally
~65,000 new cases in US ; ~14,000 deaths from RCC each year
RCC Epidemiology
4
Cigarette smokingThought to be due to chronic tissue hypoxia by
COMay be associated with deletions in
chromosome 3pSeen in peripheral blood lymphocytes treated after
benzo[α]pyrene diol epoxide treatment which is a major constituent of cigarette smoke
Etiology/Risk Factors for RCC
5
Obesitymay account for over 40% of RCC in the USincrease 24% for men and 34% for women for
every 5 kg/m2 increase in body mass index (BMI)
Etiology/Risk Factors for RCC
6
Hypertensionmay result from chronic hypoxia and lipid
peroxidation leading to reactive oxygen species formation
Chronic Hepatitis C
Etiology/Risk Factors for RCC
7
End-stage renal disease while undergoing long-term hemodialysis and after renal transplantation
Acquired renal cystic diseaseFamilial cancer syndromes,
Von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) syndrome, hereditary papillary renal carcinoma, hereditary leiomyomatosis renal cell carcinoma, Birt-Hogg-Dube, tuberous sclerosis
Occupational Exposurecadmium, asbestos, and petroleum by-products
Etiology/Risk Factors for RCC
Gross appearanceAppear encapsulatedCan be solid, cystic, or mixed, May contain fat and/or calcifications10% of tumors have some cystic
component may be more aggressive
Pathophysiology of RCC
Distinct Histologic subtypes of RCCClear cell (75 to 85 percent of tumors)
arise from proximal tubule associated with VHLpoor prognosis when higher grade or sarcomatoid
variantmore favorable prognosis when multilocular variant of
cystic clear cell RCCPapillary (chromophilic) (10 to 15 percent)
can be multifocal and bilateraloriginate from proximal tubule
Chromophobe (5 to 10 percent) lack abundant lipid and glycogen seen in most RCCsoriginate from intercalated cells of collecting system have lower risk of disease progression & death compared
to clear cell carcinomas
Pathophysiology of RCC
Distinct Histologic subtypes of RCCOncocytic (3 to 7 percent)
usually unilateral; singlemultiple and bilateral : tuberous sclerosis & Birt-
Hogg-Dube syndromegenerally well encapsulated and rarely invasive or
associated with metastasesCollecting duct (Bellini's duct) (very rare)
younger patients frequently aggressive commonly gross hematuriasarcomatoid variants notedmedullary carcinoma: highly aggressive variant
associated with the sickle cell trait; develops in young patients
Pathophysiology of RCC
12
Anatomy of Renal Cell Carcinoma
13
Many patients asymptomatic until disease advanced at presentation, ~25 % have either have distant
metastases or advanced locoregional diseaseMost cases diagnosed incidentally via imaging
study preformed in 1971 of 309 patients showed the most common presenting symptoms were hematuria, abdominal mass, pain, and weight lossNo longer the case due to imagingOnly present in ≤ 10% of casesWhen present strongly suggests locally advanced
disease
Signs & Symptoms of RCC
14
Hematuriaobserved only with tumor invasion of the collecting system
abdominal or flank massassociated with lower pole tumors
Scrotal varicocelesmajority are left-sided11 percent of men
Symptoms related to IVC involvement lower extremity edemaasciteshepatic dysfunction (may be related to a Budd-Chiari
syndrome)pulmonary emboli
Signs & Symptoms of RCC
15
“The internist's tumor” Paraneoplastic symptoms possible:
Hypertension (renin), Hypercalcemia (PTHrP), Polycythemia/erythrocytosis (erythropoietin), Cushing’s syndrome (ACTH)
Anemia ,Eosinophilia, Leukemoid reactionsFever /wasting syndromesStauffer's syndrome (reversible hepatic
dysfunction after primary tumor removal)
Metastatic disease sxs: Bone pain, Adenopathy,Pulmonary symptoms,
Upper GI bleed, Neurologic deficits

Anemia 29 to 88 percent of patients with advanced disease
Hepatic dysfunction 21 percent have a paraneoplastic elevation in serum
alkaline phosphataseHypercalcemia
up to 15 percentErythrocytosis
1 to 5 percentThrombocytosis
rare poor prognosis
Hematuria up to 40 percent
Work-up & Diagnosis
18
Imaging and Diagnosis
19
IVU: low sensitivity for detecting renal masses <2-3 cm in size
CT and IVU for microhematuria:CT accuracy 98.3%; IVU accuracy 80.9%, withCT sensitivity: 100%; IVU: 60.5%
US in radiation sensitive groups such as pregnant women and children
distinguish simple cysts from common complex masses that require follow up
Imaging and Diagnosis
20
CT urogram increasingly used for evaluation
Role of MRIDelineating superior extent of tumor in IVCnephrogenic systemic fibrosis (NSF) risks in
patients with significantly impaired renal function should be considered carefully
Imaging and Diagnosis
21
Detect & stage primary tumorChest CT if primary tumor is large or locally
aggressivei.e. RCC > 3cm
Brain MRI and bone scanning if there are symptoms and signs to suggest disease in these areasBone scanning may be limited in detecting
bone metastases in RCC

Staging and Prognosis of RCC
33
Staging and Prognosis of RCC
34
Low-grade, low-stage RCC, 4 cm or smaller, conservative nephron-sparing surgery recommendedeither pNx or tumor enucleationoutcome comparable to radical nephrectomydistinction between Stage I and Stage II is
important Stage II disease spread, either direct or
hematogenous, to the ipsilateral adrenal gland
Staging, Prognosis and Surgical Planning
35
Venous extension in 20% of patients with RCCIVC in 5–10%: requires midline incisionrenal vein involvement: routine ligation to
prevent embolization 40%tumor thrombi intrahepatic
Tumor above the hepatic veins: Thoracic surgical approach required
5–10% of tumors with caval involvement extend into right atriumcardiopulmonary bypass necessary
Staging, Prognosis and Surgical Planning
36
Nephrectomy improves survival in metastatic disease only if involves one organ, particularly bonepatients with solitary metastases that can be
excised may have a 5-year survival of 25–35%In patients with multiple metastases,
treatment usually palliative
Staging, Prognosis and Surgical Planning
37
Stage I/II — five-year survival rate over 90 percent
Stage III — five-year survival rate for patients who undergo nephrectomy : 59 to 70 percent.
Stage IV — The median survival is 16 to 20 months and the five-year survival rate is less than 10 percent for patients with distant metastases
Prognosis for RCC
38
Other Prognostic factors:Tumor grade — Fuhrman's grade is the most
widely usedfive-year survival rate by tumor grade :
89, 65, and 46 % for tumors of histologic grade 1, 2, and 3 to 4, respectively
CLINICAL FACTORS Negative prognostic signs include ;
poor performance statusthe presence of symptoms and/or paraneoplastic
syndromes obesity
Prognosis for RCC
39
Treatment depends on whether the disease is localized or advanced at initial presentation.
Localized diseasestage IA, IB, II, and IIIsurgical resection can be curative
Advanced disease tumor invading beyond Gerota’s fascia or
extending into the ipsilateral adrenal gland (T4) and metastatic disease (M1)
stage IV
Management of RCC
40
LocalizedSurgery is curative in the majority without metastatic
preferred for stages I, II, and III diseaseradical nephrectomy renal-sparing approaches in select patients
partial nephrectomy or ablative techniques resectable primary tumor with a single metastasis
surgical resection of the metastasis with radical nephrectomy may be curative
elderly and those with significant comorbidity may not be surgical candidates cryoablation, RFA observation with periodic reevaluation
Adjuvant therapy : immunotherapy or molecularly targeted agents
Management of RCC
41
Advancedthe majority of patients with stage IV RCC
have unresectable disease
if tumor involves the ipsilateral adrenal gland, a radical nephrectomy is potentially curative
in general ,patients with metastatic RCC should receive medical therapy
Management of RCC
42
Advancedmedical therapy in metastatic RCC;
molecularly targeted and immunotherapyFirst-line treatment
high-dose interleukin-2 (IL-2) If not a candidatesfor IL-2: molecularly targeted
therapy is recommendedSecond-line treatment
vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) inhibitor
Management of RCC
43
AdvancedChemotherapy
no established role in advanced or metastatic RCCRadiation Therapy
RCC typically described as a radioresistant tumorcan be useful to treat metastases
Painful bone metastases Brain metastases Painful recurrences in the renal bed
Management of RCC
44
Proceduresradiofrequency (RFA), cryoablation, microwave
ablation, high intensity, focused ultrasoundRFA and Cryoablation
acceptance based upon favorable outcomes includinglow incidence of serious complicationsless immediate morbidity and mortality than with surgerylower costthe ability to treat patients in the outpatient setting
multiple treatment sessions may be required may not be appropriate for large lesions or tumors
near the renal hilum.
Role of IR in RCC
45
RFA and CryoablationFactors that can lead to consideration of an
ablative approach rather than surgery include:T1 renal mass less than 7 cm who:poor surgical candidate, based upon older age or
significant comorbiditythe need for nephron-sparing
treatment,/conservation of renal parenchyma as a way to postpone or avoid the need for chronic dialysis.patients with a single kidney, bilateral RCCs, or a
genetic predisposition to multiple tumors
Role of IR in RCC
46
RFA and CryoablationFactors that can lead to consideration of an
ablative approach rather than surgery include:multiple tumors in the same kidney where surgery
would make renal reconstruction difficultcomplex tumors where surgery would require an
extended ischemic timethe patient prefers minimally invasive cannot have an ET tubelocal tumor recurrence after nephrectomyintractable tumor-related hematuriatumor debulking in metastatic diseasemanagement of symptomatic distant metastases from a
primary kidney tumor
Role of IR in RCC
47
Procedure RFA and Cryoablation
goals kill all viable malignant cells including a 5 to 10 mm margin of surrounding
tissue minimize damage to adjacent normal kidney
performed percutaneously usually outpatient usually conscious sedation
some will prefer general anesthesia local anesthesia is applied applicator is percutaneously placed into the center of the tumor
using CT, ultrasound, or MRI guidance heat or cold is then applied for approximately 10 to 20 minutes patient is monitored for several hours post procedure discharged home with oral analgesics for post-procedural pain patients usually able to resume normal activity in 2-3 days
Role of IR in RCC
48
Radiofrequency ablation ( RFA)utilizes a high-frequency (460 to 500 kHz)
alternating currentdelivered into the tumor through a thin
needle (usually 21 to 14 gauge) electrically insulated except for its terminal 1
to 3 cmProduces resistive friction in the tissue which
is converted into heat causing cellular destruction and protein denaturation
usually monopolar, utilizing grounding pads placed on the patient

RFA
Role of IR in RCC
50
Cryoablation uses liquid nitrogen or argon introduced into a probe resulting in freezing of the surrounding tissues, by
formation of an "iceball" that can be visualized by imaging
leads to the formation of intracellular ice crystals which disrupt the cell membrane and other intracellular activities, leading to cell death
cells not directly killed may undergo apoptosisusually involves freezing, thawing, and refreezing,complete cell death is thought to occur 3 mm inside the
edge of the ice ballmost operators extend the ice ball at least 5 mm beyond
the tumor margin

53
RFA and CryoablationPatient selection
evaluated by IR and Urologypretreatment imaging with ultrasound, MR, or CT
guidance pretreatment biopsy is not mandatory but strongly
encouraged imaging cannot always differentiate benign from
malignant
Role of IR in RCC
54
RFA and CryoablationTumor size and location are the most important
factors
0.5 to 1.0 cm "ablation margin" surrounding the tumor is needed to ensure that the entire tumor is treated
tumors <4 cm in diameter are idealmost tumors <3 cm can be treated in a single sessionbetween 3.0 and 4.0 cm may require multiple
abalationsexophytic tumors are most amenable to ablation,
avoids the heat sync effect (as opposed to more central tumors where heat sink may occur) – This is not an issue with cryoablation hence perihilar mass can also be treated with cryoablation
70 percent or more require only a single session
Role of IR in RCC
55
Post ablation surveillancePatients are seen in clinic initially at 1 week to 1
month after the procedure patients are assessed for pain, discomfort, ability to
urinate, hematuria, fever, or chills the skin entry site and abdomen are examined
CT is typically usedSurveillance should begin about one month after
treatmentviable tumor is usually nodular and enhancessuccessfully ablated tumor show no enhancesusually performed at three to six months, 12 months, 18
months, and 24 months after ablation, and then yearly
Post-Procedure Follow-up for RCC
56
Post ablation survellance
both RFA and cryoablation have a low incidence of serious complications
A self-limited syndrome consisting of fever and flu-like symptoms has been reported in up to one-third of patients following RFA and cryoablation
Post-Procedure Follow-up for RCC
57
Complications of Percutaneous ablation Few reported Self limiting hematuria resolves within 24 hours of treatment Bowel necrosis Adrenal release of catecholamines when ablating in close proximity
to the adrenal gland No reports of clinically significant injury to the liver, spleen, or renal
bleeding There is little renal damage associated with radiofrequency ablation Track seeding - less than 0.01% Pneumothorax Ureteral stricture or hydrnephrosis Damage to genitofemoral nerve Overall, the rate of serious complications is estimated to be
approximately 1% for radiofrequency ablation of renal tumors
Post-Procedure Follow-up for RCC
58
Management of post ablative complicationHemorrhage
RareEmbolization rarely required
PneumothoraxUsually smallChest tube placement if large
Ureteral injury or HydronephrosisNephrostomy placement
Post-Procedure Follow-up for RCC
59
Approximately 65,000 new cases in the US and almost 14,000 deaths from RCC each year 2.3% of all cancer deaths in the US
There are many treatable associated risk factorsIncreasing incidence and early identification due to
imagingSurgery continues to play a significant role in treatmentInterventional radiology also plays an effective role in
management of RCC including biopsy and ablative therapy among many other s in providing minimally invasive techniques allowing for outpatient procedures, less pain, and early recovery without significant associated complication
