This paper presents new approaches for the estimation of the extreme value index in the framework of randomly censored samples, based on the ideas of Kaplan-Meier integration and the synthetic data approach of Leurgans (1987). These ideas are developed here in the heavy-tailed case, and lead to modifications of the Hill estimator, for which the consistency is proved under first order conditions. Simulations exhibit good performances of the two approaches, compared to the only existing adaptation of the Hill estimator in this context
