Kidney Cancer - MD Anderson Cancer Center

This cancer survivorship algorithm has been specifically developed for MD Anderson using a multidisciplinary approach and taking into consideration circumstances particular to MD Anderson, including the
following: MD Anderson’s specific patient population; MD Anderson’s services and structure; and MD Anderson’s clinical information. This algorithm is provided as informational purposes only and is not
intended to replace the independent medical or professional judgment of physicians or other health care providers.
