Kidney Cancer
Kidney Cancer is a malignant tumor originating in the kidneys, most commonly renal cell carcinoma.
Symptoms include blood in urine, flank pain, and unexplained weight loss. Early diagnosis through imaging, biopsy, and lab tests allows effective treatment with surgery, targeted therapy, or immunotherapy, improving survival and quality of life.
Causes and Risk Factors of Kidney Cancer
Kidney cancer develops due to genetic mutations and environmental influences.
- Smoking: Increases risk significantly.
- Obesity and hypertension
- Genetic predisposition: Von Hippel-Lindau syndrome and other inherited mutations increase risk.
Symptoms and Clinical Presentation
Early stages may be silent; later signs include:
- Hematuria (blood in urine)
- Flank or back pain: Often on one side, may radiate to lower abdomen
- Unexplained weight loss or fever
- Fatigue and anemia in advanced cases
Treatment Modalities for Kidney Cancer
Treatment is personalized based on tumor size, location, and spread.
- Surgery: Partial or radical nephrectomy to remove tumor.
- Targeted therapy: Drugs that inhibit tumor growth pathways.
- Immunotherapy and supportive care as needed.
