No tumor-free waiting period after treatment of multilocular cystic renal cell carcinoma: a new case and review of the literature.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Vascular calcification is seen in most patients on dialysis and is strongly associated with cardiovascular mortality. Vascular calcification is promoted by phosphate, which generally reaches higher levels in hemodialysis than in peritoneal dialysis. However, whether vascular calcification develops less in pe...
