- Abstract
Tumor stage is considered the single most important prognostic factor in renal cell carcinoma. The most critical issue when determining the pathologic stage is wheter the tumor is organ-confined or has spread outside of the organ. Proper handling and sampling of radical nephrectomy (RN) is essential for accurate determination of pathologic stage and other relevant tumor parameters such as: tumor size, tumor invading beyond the kidney into the peripheral extracapsular tissue or the renal sinus. The main goal of this review is to focus on practical aspects of nephrectomy specimen handling and sampling in order to get an accurate pathology report.
