Surgical Resection of Distant Disease for Kidney Cancer

Surgical Resection of Distant Disease (Metastasectomy)

When kidney cancer spreads outside the kidney, systemic therapy is generally the only treatment option employed by many centers. However, select patients can have sites of disease surgically removed to place them in remission or palliate symptoms. As UCLA is a world-class surgical center, the Kidney Cancer Program works closely with our liver, pancreas, neurologic, colorectal, orthopedic, thoracic, and cardiac surgeons to offer surgery when indicated.
