The exact treatment recommendations depend on each patient's situation. Be sure to talk with your treating doctor about choosing a treatment.

Study population

No abstract is available in the PubMed record. The title indicates that the subject is renal cell carcinoma. Details of the target population are in the full text of the guideline.

Endpoints

This is a clinical guideline, not a trial; no defined endpoint is given in the record.

Safety and side effects

Clinical significance and place in guidelines

This guideline is one of the international references for the diagnosis, treatment and follow-up of renal cell carcinoma. The record has no abstract, so the recommendations, levels of evidence and changes from previous versions cannot be extracted from it. These should be checked in the full text and approved by an oncologist before publication.

Limitations

The PubMed record has no abstract and no specific recommendation is quoted on this card. The full text of the guideline must be reviewed to complete the recommendations and levels of evidence.
