New guidance from the National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE) covers diagnosing and managing renal cell carcinoma in people aged 18 and over.

The most important changes to practice are:

• All people with renal cell carcinoma should have support from a clinical nurse specialist throughout their care

• Healthcare professionals should identify people with suspected renal cell carci-noma who could benefit from having a biopsy and discuss this with them to help them make an informed decision

• Active surveillance, thermal ablation and stereotactic ablative radiotherapy should be considered for managing localised small renal masses when surgery is not needed, possible or suitable.
