Abstract
To investigate the incidence of and risk factors for developing chronic renal insufficiency (CRI), proteinuria and metabolic acidosis (MA) in patients treated with radical nephrectomy (RN) or nephron-sparing surgery (NSS). We retrospectively reviewed 749 patients (mean age 57.7 years; mean follow-up 6.4 years) who had RN or NSS for renal tumours between July 1987 and June 2006 at our institution. The demographics and outcomes were analysed and recorded. The primary outcome variable was the development of an estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) of or =2.0 mg/dL, MA (serum bicarbonate or =1+ on dipstick testing). Multivariate logistic regression (MV) was used to identify risk factors for developing an eGFR of or =2.0 mg/dL and MA. Of the 749 patients, 499 had RN and 250 NSS; there were no significant demographic differences between the groups. After surgery a significantly greater proportion of the RN than the NSS group had a low eGFR (44.7% vs 16.0%, P < 0.001), MA (12.8% vs 7.2%, P = 0.02), proteinuria (22.2% vs 13.2%, P = 0.003) and elevated creatinine (14.2% vs 8.4%, P = 0.022). MV showed that diabetes mellitus (odds ratio 8.96, P = 0.002), RN (5.32, P < 0.001), hypertension (4.55, P = 0.003), a body mass index (BMI) of > or =30 kg/m(2) (3.51, P = 0.017), age > or =60 years (2.91, P = 0.015) and smoking (2.44, P = 0.014) were risk factors for developing a low eGFR; and that age > or =60 years (2.00, P = 0.019), diabetes mellitus (10, P < 0.001), hypertension (7.41, P = 0.002), smoking (5.29, P < 0.001) and RN (3.08, P < 0.001) were risk factors for developing an elevated creatinine level; and that being male (2.50, P = 0.019), age > or =60 years (3.13, P = 0.002), a BMI > or =30 (3.52, P < 0.001), RN (9.82, P < 0.001), preoperative eGFR or =60 years, diabetes mellitus, hypertension and smoking were associated with progression to CRI after surgery.Keywords
