Slide 9: Prognosis & Follow-up

  • Overall survival for favorable histology >90%.
  • Poor prognostic factors: diffuse anaplasia, advanced stage, age >10 years or <2 months.

| Stage | Description | |-------|-------------| | I | Tumor limited to kidney, completely resected, capsule intact. | | II | Tumor extends beyond kidney but completely resected (no residual). | | III | Residual non-hematogenous tumor post-op (e.g., positive margins, lymph node involvement). | | IV | Hematogenous metastases (lung, liver, bone, brain). | | V | Bilateral renal involvement at diagnosis. |
