摘 要:Objective:The role of lymph node dissection(LND)is still controversial in patients with renal cell carcinoma undergoing *** aimed to provide a comprehensive review of the literature about the effect of LND on survival,prognosis,surgical outcomes,as well as patient selection and available LND ***:Recent literature(from January 2011 to December 2021)was assessed through PubMed and MEDLINE databases.A narrative review of most relevant articles was ***:The frequencies in which LNDs are being carried out are decreasing due to an increase in minimally invasive and nephron sparing ***,randomized clinical trials and meta-analyses failed to show any survival advantage of LND versus no ***,retrospective studies suggest a survival benefit of LND in high-risk patients(bulky tumors,T3-4 stage,and cN1 patients).Moreover,extended LND might provide important staging information,which could be of interest for adjuvant treatment ***:No level 1 evidence of any survival advantage deriving from LND is currently available in ***,the role of LND is limited to staging ***,low grade evidence suggests a possible role of LND in high-risk *** clinical trials are warranted to corroborate these findings.
