Slow-growing tumors, including genitourinary cancers such as lower risk prostate cancer and early stage renal cancer, are unlikely to cause morbidity or mortality for many years. Thus, patients with limited life expectancy who are treated aggressively are likely to incur treatment related morbidity ...
BACKGROUND: Limited evidence suggests that persons with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) may be at increased risk for malignancy. The appropriateness of screening procedures in this population has not been evaluated. OBJECTIVE: To determine the relative cost-effectiveness of hypothetical cancer screening ...
