摘要
Metastatic renal cancer is responsive in some cases to immunotherapeutic agents. Indications for nephrectomy in the face of metastatic disease have traditionally included palliation of symptoms caused by the primary tumor, and nephrectomy combined with metastatectomy in patients with resectable metastases. Recent findings from a Southwest Oncology Group trial strongly suggest that cytoreductive nephrectomy, combined with immunotherapy, may also result in improved survival in patients with unresectable metastases.
