Preoperative VEGFR‐TKI Plus ICI Therapy Facilitates 3D‐Guided Cytoreductive Nephron‐Sparing Surgical Feasibility and Immune Remodeling in Advanced Renal Cell Carcinoma

open access: yesMed Research, EarlyView.
Preoperative VEGFR‐TKI plus ICI therapy in advanced ccRCC normalizes tumor vasculature, enhances CD8⁺ T/B cell infiltration, and promotes TLS maturation, leading to profound tumor microenvironment remodeling. These immunologic changes improve the feasibility of 3D reconstruction‐guided robotic cytoreductive nephron‐sparing surgery, resulting in reduced
