Small Renal Mass
Abstract
A 65-year-old man with a history of well-controlled hypertension presents for a follow-up visit after an incidental finding of a small mass in the right kidney on an abdominal computed tomographic scan (ordered to evaluate lower-quadrant pain, which has since resolved). The mass is 3.2 cm, anterior, heterogeneous, and solid, and is in the right renal hilum near the main renal artery, vein, and ureter; the left kidney appears normal. The patient feels well, his physical examination is unremarkable. His serum creatinine level is 1.2 mg per deciliter. How should this patient be further evaluated and treated?

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
