Bone metastases from renal cell carcinoma: 4 years after aggressive surgeries and anti‐angiogenic therapy
Management of bone metastases from renal cell carcinoma (RCC) has significantly changed after the era of targeted therapy that improved the overall survival (OS). Surgical decision‐making remains a subject of controversy. We report a case of pelvic bone metastasis from RCC, 2 months after nephrectom...

Summary: | Management of bone metastases from renal cell carcinoma (RCC) has significantly changed after the era of targeted therapy that improved the overall survival (OS). Surgical decision‐making remains a subject of controversy. We report a case of pelvic bone metastasis from RCC, 2 months after nephrectomy and surgery of a revealing clavicular metastasis.
Associated to targeted therapy, surgery is a good option to reach curative outcome, achieve local tumor control, and increase survival in case of solitary or limited number of metastases from renal cell carcinoma. |
