Due to non-standard neoadjuvant approach of using modern tyrosine kinase inhibitors of VEGFR and immunotherapy (VEGFR-TKI/IO) combination pembrolizumab + lenvatinib, thoracotomy was avoided and complete pathological regression of the tumor was achieved. Various studies on neoadjuvant therapy of kidney cancer including in patients with tumor thrombus are discussed, and the prospects for introducing this approach into clinical practice are described.</p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="ru"><p>В статье представлен клинический случай лечения молодого мужчины с местно-распространенным почечно-клеточным раком с наличием опухолевого тромба в нижней полой вене выше уровня диафрагмы. Благодаря применению нестандартного подхода в виде предоперационного использования современной иммунотаргетной комбинации пембролизумаб + ленватиниб удалось избежать торакотомного доступа, а также добиться полного патоморфологического регресса опухоли. В качестве обсуждения приведены результаты различных исследований, посвященных неоадъювантной терапии рака почки, в том числе у пациентов с опухолевым тромбозом, и отражены перспективы внедрения данного подхода в клиническую практику.</p></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>kidney cancer</kwd><kwd>tumor thrombus of the inferior vena cava</kwd><kwd>targeted combination</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>рак почки</kwd><kwd>опухолевый тромб нижней полой вены</kwd><kwd>иммунотаргетная комбинация</kwd></kwd-group><funding-group><funding-statement xml:lang="en">The work was performed without external funding</funding-statement><funding-statement xml:lang="ru">Работа выполнена без спонсорской поддержки</funding-statement></funding-group></article-meta></front><body></body><back><ref-list><ref id="B1"><label>1.</label><mixed-citation>Ferlay J., Ervik M., Lam F. et al.
