Abstract

In conclusion, our first two patients' renal tumors did not stain strongly for folate; however, the normal renal parenchyma did, which served as an intraoperative guide to confirm a negative margin. Further study of patients will reveal whether folate receptors are, in fact, predominant or not in renal cell cancer. No competing financial interests exist. Runtime of video: 5 mins Presented at the World Congress of Endourology 2016 in Capetown, South Africa.
