Abstract

the initial cytoreductive nephrectomy to 3 successive lines of medical treatment (sunitinib, everolimus, and sorafenib) and multiple locoregional treatments (spinal surgery, radiation therapy, and selective arterial embolization), resulting in a surprisingly long survival of over 75 months. In the era of target therapy, integration strategies, including additional locoregional treatment to medical therapy, are essential to optimize the clinical benefit, to maximize treatment duration overcoming focal progressive disease, and to improve the quality of life. In this context, we would highlight that selective transcatheter embolization of bone metastases from renal cell carcinoma should be considered as an effective and safe option in the palliative setting for patients with bone metastasis, especially for pain relief.
