Warm Ischemia or Cold Ischemia During Surgery in Treating Patients With Stage I Kidney Cancer

NCT00743236 · Status: COMPLETED · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 1

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

RATIONALE: Warm ischemia is the clamping of blood vessels without cooling the kidney. Cold ischemia is the clamping of blood vessels with kidney cooling. It is not yet known whether warm ischemia is more effective than cold ischemia in patients undergoing surgery for stage I kidney cancer.

PURPOSE: This randomized phase III trial is studying warm ischemia to see how well it works compared with cold ischemia during surgery in treating patients with stage I kidney cancer.
