Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) incidence has doubled over the past few decades. However,
death rates have remained stable as the number of incidental renal mass diagnoses …

Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) incidence is increasing worldwide. A high proportion of
individuals are asymptomatic at diagnosis, but RCC has a high mortality rate. These facts …

Objectives To describe the frequency and nature of symptoms in patients presenting with
suspected renal cell carcinoma (RCC) and examine their reliability in achieving early …

Context The epidemiological signature of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) during the past
decades is explained by overdetection and overtreatment of indolent cancers; furthermore, a …

Context Early detection of kidney cancer improves survival; however, low prevalence means
that population-wide screening may be inefficient. Stratification of the population into risk …

Purpose To systematically review studies focused on screening programs for renal cell
carcinoma (RCC) and provide an exhaustive overview on their clinical impact, potential …

Background Using risk stratification approaches to determine eligibility has the potential to
improve efficiency of screening. Objectives To compare the public acceptability and potential …

Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is one of the most lethal type of tumors and is twice more
frequent in men than in women. Initial symptoms are unspecific and belated thus increasing …

Objectives To externally validate risk models for the detection of kidney cancer, as early
detection of kidney cancer improves survival and stratifying the population using risk models …

Earlier detection and screening for kidney cancer has been identified as a key research
priority, however the low prevalence of the disease in unselected populations limits the cost …
