The Effect of Pre-treatment Biopsy for Non-neoplastic Renal Disease vs no Biopsy on Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate in Patients With Small Renal Mass: a Single-center, Single-blinded, Randomized, Parallel Group Clinical Trial

Not Applicable
Withdrawn
Conditions
Kidney Neoplasms
Registration Number
NCT02841020
Lead Sponsor
University of Virginia
Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine if biopsy for non-neoplastic renal disease for patients with a small renal mass results in greater postoperative renal function than the current standard of care (no additional biopsy).
