Kidney cancer, also known as renal cell carcinoma, is a type of cancer that begins in the kidneys. It is one of the most common cancers and primarily affects adults.
Risk factors include smoking, obesity, high blood pressure, family history of kidney cancer, and certain genetic conditions.
Symptoms of kidney cancer can include blood in the urine, pain in the side or back, unexplained weight loss, fatigue, and fever.
Early detection is crucial for successful treatment, which may involve surgery, targeted therapy, immunotherapy, and, in some cases, radiation therapy. Surgical options include partial or radical nephrectomy, which involves removing part or all of the affected kidney.
Advances in treatment have improved the prognosis for many patients with kidney cancer, making early diagnosis and intervention key components of effective care.
