| Abstract | We evaluated the clinicopathological outcome of von Hippel-Lindau (VHL)-patients who had mainly undergone nephron sparing surgery (NSS) for renal cell carcinoma (RCC) when the tumour diameter has reached 4.0 cm. Multiple, bilateral RCC with high recurrence rates and subsequent repeated interventions, followed by increasing risk for end-stage renal failure and metastases is characteristic for VHL. NSS is widely used for VHL-associated RCC at 3.0 cm cut-off. 54 VHL patients underwent NSS, nephrectomy or thermal ablation for RCC. We analysed time to second treatment, overall and cancer specific survival, intra- and post-operative data as well as tumour characteristics. We also examined the effects of delaying removal of RCC to 4.0 cm cut-off. Median follow-up was 67 months. 54 patients underwent 97 kidney treatments. 96 % of first and 67 % of second interventions comprised of NSS. 0 % metastases were observed in the group with largest tumour size ≤4 cm. The probability for second surgery was 21 %, at 5 years and 42 % at 10 years. Median time to second NSS was 149.6 months. The overall and cancer specific survival rate was 96.5 and 100 % at 5-year follow-up, and 82.5 and 90.5 % respectively at 10-year follow-up. Median delay to second NSS at 4.0 cm cut-off versus 3.0 cm was 27.8 months. NSS was both successfully used in first and second surgery and to some extent even in third surgery. By following a strict surveillance protocol it is possible to support a 4.0 cm-threshold strategy for NSS, based on the assumption that delaying time to second NSS prevents patients from premature renal failure. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
