Findings from Department of Urology in Kidney Cancer Reported (Machine learning analysis for detecting late recurrence and loss to follow-up after renal cell carcinoma surgery).

A study conducted by the Department of Urology focused on predicting late recurrence and loss to follow-up after renal cell carcinoma surgery using machine learning analysis. The research analyzed 1051 cases and found that the risk of late recurrence increased up to approximately 50 months postoperatively, with no distinct risk factors beyond that point. Additionally, the risk of loss to follow-up was found to increase with advancing age, particularly beyond 70 years. The study concluded that it is challenging to identify factors predicting late recurrence and emphasized the importance of long-term follow-up, especially for older patients, and the need for collaboration with local hospitals for patient care.
