Different types of standard treatment are available for patients with renal cell cancer:
surgery, radiotherapy, chemotherapy, biological therapy, targeted therapy.
New types of treatment are being investigated in
clinical trials: segmental resection of the renal pelvis, laser surgery, regional chemotherapy and regional biologic therapy.
Certain factors affect the prognosis (chance of recovery) and choice of treatment options: the stage of the disease, the patient’s age and general state of health.
