Introduction: Radical nephrectomy has been the standard procedure for the treatment of localized renal tumors However, partial nephrectomy is preferred in some cases due to the crescent diagnosis of small renal masses.
Objective: The target of this study is to compare the oncological outcomes in patients older than 50 years with renal carcinoma stage II (T2N0M0) in therms of disease specific survival. In partial nephrectomy against radical nephrectomy.
Methods: This Sistematic review was made by the assessment of the MEDLINE, EMBASE and CENTRAL databases with the inclusion of case-control studies, cohort studies and randomized controlled trials.
Results: The initial search released 101 articles, 11 were preselected and one study were finally included with a II level of evidence.
Conclusion: It was not possible to concluded the oncological equivalence between the radical nephrectomy and the partial nephrectomy, although there is not enough evidence.
