Brief Summary

Objectives: Apply 3D- printed biomodels in patients with renal cancer (RCa) and vascular involvement (VTT) to: (1) improve surgical planning, (2) upgrade surgical results, (3) facilitate communication with patients, (4) serve as a model for teaching residents and (5) shortening the learning curve in experienced urologists. Methodology: The design of the study is a randomized clinical trial, to determine the safety, precision, feasibility, predictability, efficacy and efficiency of a surgical strategy based on imaging tests and 3D models regarding the surgical planning in patients with RCa and VTT. This is a longitudinal, prospective, experimental and multicenter study on a cohort diagnosed of RCa and VTT from 2018 in the Virgen del Rocío University Hospital (HUVR) or in the Ramón y Cajal University Hospital (HURC). The study will last for 3 years and will be carried out jointly by the HUVR, the HURC and the IBIS, in a multidisciplinary team made up of urologists, radiologists and engineers.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Grade of Concordance between the CT and the 3D model evaluated with the kappa and the intraclass correlation coefficient.

    The grade of concordance between the CT and 3D model will be assessed firstly identifying all the anatomical structures in the 3D model: Kidneys, tumor, arteries and veins.Then some measures will be taken both in the CT and the model to compare them. That will be repeated in 20 cases and the grade of concordance will be assessed by using the Kappa and the intraclass correlation coefficient.

    12 weeks, from the beginning of the study and before recruitment starts

Secondary Outcomes (10)

  • Grade of concordance between the CT and/or 3D model and the vivo model evaluated with the kappa and the intraclass correlation coefficient.

    1 year, since the recruitment begins until we have the first 10 cases of renal cell carcinoma with thrombus venous extension operated

  • Grade of predictability of the surgery planning with 3D and images compared with the surgery planning made only with images. It will be assessed by using the Kappa and the intraclass correlation coefficient.

    3 years, since the recruitment begins until the end of the recruitment.

  • Surgery outcome in terms of blood transfusion (number of blood transfusions needed)

    3 years, since the recruitment begins until the end of the recruitment.

  • Surgery outcome in terms of number and grade of complications according to Clavien's scale

    3 years, since the recruitment begins until the end of the recruitment.

  • Surgery outcome in terms of free surgery margins according to the histopathology analysis of the specimen.

    3 years, since the recruitment begins until the end of the recruitment.

  • +5 more secondary outcomes
