Oncologic outcomes of patients treated with kidney-sparing surgery or radical nephroureterectomy for upper urinary tract urothelial cancer: a population-based study

CONCLUSION: In this population-based study, SU provides equivalent CSS and OS compared to RNU, even in high-risk and locally advanced ureteral cancer. Due to the unavoidable risk of selection bias, further prospective studies are expected to overcome the limitations of this study and support the wider implementation of KSS.PMID:37981503 | DOI:10.1016/j.urolonc.2023.09.019
