Further imaging as needed Biopsy of lesion Follow appropriate Metastatic guidelines Met(s) identified? Follow bilateral guideline Medical oncology Individualized *te: Retroperitoneal lymph nodes up to 3 cm do not imply unresectable disease. Lymph node biopsy not indicated. Mass in contralateral kidney? Impaired renal function or morphologically abnormal contralateral kidney? Split renal function test MRI of brain Bone scan Consider nephrology consultation Special anatomic considerations, e.g., inferior vena cava thrombus above hepatic vein or invasion of adjacent organs?
