Kidney Cancer - occurs about 90% of time as the type known as renal cell carcinoma (it affects about 40 000 Americans each year). The other 5% are transitional cell carcinomas (urothelial carcinomas). Using a microscope a technician can classify renal cell carcinoma as falling into 5 categories:
  • clear cell,
  • papillary,
  • chromophobe,
  • collecting duct, and
  • unclassified


Symptoms: The most frequent sign of kidney cancer is detection of blood in the urine. Other symptoms include lower back pain, swelling of the legs and ankles, fever, a mass (lump) in the abdomen, weight loss and fatigue.

Diagnosis: If your doctor suspects cancer a series of laboratory tests and radiological examinations may be prescribed. A tracer die may be injected and used to contrast any cancerous growth when imaging tests are ordered.

Treatment: In the early stages of kidney cancer (Stage I and II) surgery is usually the best way to remove the cancerous tissue. In the later stages of growth, your doctor may put you on cytokine therapy. This is usually the case if you are in general good health. Other treatment options include immunotherapy, chemotherapy, and newer targeted therapies.
