On the multivariate analysis, only age, size, and contact with renal vessels were found to predict upstaging. A model was developed which was able to predict stage pT3a with an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.864 in the ROC curve. Upstaging to pT3a is fairly common in clinically localized tumors. A formula that includes tumor size, age and contact with the main vessels on imaging, can help predict it. This should be considered when deciding if the patient is a candidate for nephron sparing surgery. Upstaging t
