RCC is a common malignancy that is often diagnosed incidentally on an abdominal imaging study. Seventy percent of patients are diagnosed with stage I RCC and 11% of patients with stage IV. First-line treatments for early-stage RCC are partial or radical nephrectomy, which can result in 5-year cancer-specific survival of more than 94%, ablative techniques, or active surveillance. New treatment options for patients with metastatic RCC include immune checkpoint inhibitors and tyrosine kinase inhibitors.
