Radical nephroureterectomy has traditionally been the standard-of-care treatment for most patients with upper tract urothelial carcinomas (UTUCs). However, patients with normal kidney function might benefit from treatment with a kidney-sparing approach. Here, Morgan Rouprêt and colleagues describe the risk-adjusted, kidney-sparing treatment and management of patients with UTUCs and the associated risks and benefits, whilst also highlighting the indications for use of such an approach.
