OBJECTIVES To examine the population-based survival rates of patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma (RCC) treated with cytoreductive nephrectomy (CNT) and compare them with those of patients treated without surgery.METHODS Of the 43 143 patients with RCC identified in the 1988-2004 Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results database, 5372 had metastatic RCC. Of those, 2447 were treated with CNT (45.5%) and 2925 (54.5%) were not. Unvariable and multivariable Cox regression models, as well as matched and unmatched Kaplan-Meier survival analyses, were used. The covariates consisted of age, sex, tumor size, and year of diagnosis.RESULTS The 1-, 2-, 5-, and 10-year overall Survival rate of the patients treated with CNT was 53.6%, 36.3%, 19.4%, and 12.7% compared with 18.5%, 7.4%, 2.3%, and 1.2% for the no-surgery patients, respectively. The corresponding cancer-specific survival rates were 58.1%, 40.8%, 24.3%, and 18.8% and 24.4%, 11.0%, 4.1%, and 2.9% for the same patient groups. On multivariate analysis, independent predictor status was recorded for treatment type, tumor size, and patient age (all P < .001). Also, relative to CNT, the no-surgery group had a 2.5-fold greater rate of overall and cancer-specific mortality (P < .001). In the matched analyses, virtually the same effect was recorded (hazard ratio 2.6, P < .001).CONCLUSION The results of our study have shown that CNT significantly improves the survival of patients with metastatic RCC.
