Kidney Cancer

also known as renal cell carcinoma, is a malignancy that originates in the kidney cells. It often presents with subtle or no symptoms in its early stages, making early detection challenging. As it progresses, common signs include blood in the urine, back or side pain, and a palpable mass in the abdomen. Treatment approaches for kidney cancer include surgery, such as nephrectomy, targeted therapy, immunotherapy, and radiation. The choice of treatment depends on the cancer’s stage, size, and overall health of the patient. Early diagnosis and prompt treatment are crucial for the best outcomes in kidney cancer cases.
