Prior research identified improved and personalised surveillance as a priority for patients with kidney cancer follow-up experience. About 20% to 30% of patients develop recurrence within 5 years after surgery for localised renal cell carcinoma. Follow-up recommendations remain imprecise and are inconsistently delivered across the UK. Recurrence after surgery for localised renal cell carcinoma creates a need for postoperative surveillance. International guidelines recommend tailoring surveillance to individual recurrence risk.
