Treatment of Renal Cell Carcinoma with a T2 Tumour Measuring More Than 7 cm

When renal cell carcinoma presents as a T2 tumour exceeding 7 cm, the size of the primary lesion shapes the surgical strategy. This protocol defines the preferred approach for this specific presentation.

Clinical Scenario

Renal cell carcinoma with a T2 tumour measuring greater than 7 cm. Tumour size at this stage is a key determinant of the operative approach and the decision pathway for definitive management.
