Objective: To update the French recommendations for the management of kidney cancer. Methods: A systematic review of the literature was conducted for the period from 2014 to 2024. The most relevant articles concerning the diagnosis, classification, surgical treatment, medical treatment, and follow-up of kidney cancer were selected and incorporated into the recommendations. The recommendations have been updated specifying the level of evidence (strong or weak). Results: Kidney cancer following prolonged occupational exposure to trichloroethylene should be considered an occupational disease. The reference examination for the diagnosis and staging of kidney cancer is the contrast-enhanced thoraco-abdominal CT scan. PET scans are not indicated in the staging of kidney cancer. Percutaneous biopsy is recommended in situations where its results will influence therapeutic decisions. It should be used to reduce the number of surgeries for benign tumors, particularly avoiding unnecessary radical nephrectomies. Kidney tumors should be classified according to the pTNM 2017 classification, the WHO 2022 classification, and the ISUP nucleolar grade. Metastatic kidney cancers should be classified according to IMDC criteria. Surveillance of tumors smaller than 2 cm should be prioritized and can be offered regardless of patient age. Robot-assisted laparoscopic partial nephrectomy is the reference surgical treatment for T1 tumors. Ablative therapies and surveillance are options for elderly patients with comorbidities for tumors larger than 2 cm. Stereotactic radiotherapy is an option to discuss for treating localized kidney tumors in patients not eligible for other treatments. Radical nephrectomy is the first-line treatment for locally advanced localized cancers. Pembrolizumab is recommended for patients at high risk of recurrence after surgery for localized kidney cancer. In metastatic patients, cytoreductive nephrectomy can be immediate in cases of good prognosis, delayed in cases of intermediate or poor prognosis for patients stabilized by medical treatment, or as u201cconsolidationu201d in patients with complete or major partial response at metastatic sites after systemic treatment. Surgical or local treatment of metastases can be proposed for single lesions or oligometastases. Recommended first-line drugs for metastatic clear cell renal carcinoma are combinations of axitinib/pembrolizumab, nivolumab/ipilimumab, nivolumab/cabozantinib, and lenvatinib/pembrolizumab. Patients with non-clear cell metastatic kidney cancer should be presented to the CARARE Network and prioritized for inclusion in clinical trials. Conclusion: These updated recommendations are a reference that will enable French and French-speaking practitioners to optimize their management of kidney cancer.
