First seen Jan 06, 2026 · Last updated Apr 28, 2026 · Updated 15 times

Summary

This study compares two types of lymph node removal during kidney cancer surgery in 220 high-risk patients. One group gets a more thorough removal (template dissection), the other only removes visibly enlarged nodes. The goal is to see if the thorough approach helps prevent cancer from returning and helps patients live longer. Participants will be followed for up to 10 years.
