Renal cell cancer is a disease in which malignant (cancer) cells form in the tubules of the kidney.
The renal cell cancer (also called cancer of the kidney or renal cell adenocarcinoma) is a disease
found cell malignant (cancer) in the lining of tubules (very small tubes) kidney. There are two
kidneys, one on each side of the spine, above the waist. The small tubules of the kidneys filter and
clean the blood. These take waste products and produce urine. Urine passes from each kidney to the
bladder through a long tube called a ureter. The bladder stores urine until it passes through the
urethra and leaves the body.
Cancer that begins in the ureters or renal pelvis (the part of the kidney that collects urine and drains
it into the ureters) is different from renal cell cancer.
Smoking and misuse of certain pain medications can influence the risk of renal cell cancer.
Anything that increases the likelihood of having a disease is called a risk factor. The presence of a
risk factor does not mean that you will get cancer; but the absence of risk factors does not mean
that you will not get cancer. Talk to your urologist in East Delhi if you think you are at risk.
The risk factors for renal cell cancer are as follows:
• Smoking
• Inappropriate and long use of certain medications, including pain medications that are
counter.
• Overweight.
• High blood pressure.
• Family history of renal cell cancer.
• Certain conditions genetic, such as von Hippel-Lindau or carcinoma hereditary papillary renal
cell.
Signs of renal cell cancer include having blood in the urine or a mass in the abdomen.
It is possible that these and other signs and symptoms are due to renal cell cancer or other
conditions. In the early stages there may be no signs or symptoms. Signs and symptoms may appear
as the tumor grows. Check with the best urologist in East Delhi if you have any of the following
manifestations:
• Blood in the urine.
• Mass in the abdomen.
• Pain on the side that does not go away.
• Loss of appetite.
• Weight loss for no known reason.
• Anemia.
General aspects of treatment options
IMPORTANT POINTS
• There are different types of kidney cancer treatment in Delhi for patients with renal cell
cancer.
• Five types of standard treatments are used:
o Surgery
o Radiotherapy
o Chemotherapy
o Immunotherapy
o Targeted therapy
• New types of treatment are being tested in clinical trials.
• Sometimes the treatment for renal cell cancer causes side effects.
• Patients may consider participating in a clinical trial.
• Patients may enter clinical trials before, during or after starting their kidney cancer
treatment in Ghaziabad.
• Sometimes follow-up tests are needed.
There are different types of treatment for patients with renal cell cancer.
There are different types of treatment available for patients with renal cell cancer. Some treatments
are standard (treatment that is currently used) and others are under evaluation in clinical trials. A
clinical trial of a treatment consists of a research study that seeks to improve current treatments or
obtain information on new treatments for cancer patients. When clinical trials show that a new
treatment is better than the standard treatment, the new treatment can become the standard
kidney cancer treatment in Delhi. Patients should consider participating in a clinical trial. Some
clinical trials are open only to patients who have not started treatment.
Five types of standard treatments are used:
Surgery
For kidney cancer treatment in Noida, surgery is often used to remove part of the kidney or the
entire kidney. The following types of surgery can be used:
Partial nephrectomy: surgical procedure to remove cancer from inside the kidney and part of the
surrounding tissue. Sometimes a partial nephrectomy is done by urologist in Noida to prevent loss
of kidney function when the other kidney is damaged or has already been removed.
Simple nephrectomy: surgical procedure to remove only the kidney.
Radical nephrectomy: surgical procedure to remove the kidney, adrenal gland, surrounding tissue
and, usually, some nearby lymph nodes.
A person can live only with part of a functioning kidney, but if both kidneys are removed or if they
are not working, the person will need dialysis in Delhi (procedure to clean the blood using a machine
outside the body) or a kidney transplant (replacement with a healthy kidney donated). A kidney
transplant in Delhi can be done when the disease is only in the kidney and a donated kidney is
found. If the patient has to wait until a kidney is donated, another treatment is given as needed.
When surgery to remove the cancer is not possible, a treatment called arterial embolization is used
to reduce the size of the tumor. A small incision is made by urologist in Ghaziabad and a catheter
(thin tube) is inserted into the main blood vessel that flows into the kidney. Small pieces of a special
gelatinous sponge are injected into the blood vessel through this catheter. Sponges block blood flow
to the kidney and prevent cancer cells from receiving oxygen and other substances they need to
grow.
Once the best urologist in Noida removes all visible cancer at the time of surgery, some patients
may receive chemotherapy or radiotherapy after surgery to destroy any remaining cancer cells. The
treatment given after surgery to decrease the risk of cancer coming back is called adjuvant therapy.
Radiotherapy
Radiation therapy is a cancer treatment for which high-energy x-rays and other types of radiation
are used to destroy cancer cells or prevent them from growing. There are two types of radiotherapy:
External radiotherapy: type of radiotherapy for which a machine that sends radiation to cancer from
outside the body is used.
Internal radiotherapy: type of radiotherapy for which a radioactive substance sealed in needles,
seeds, wires or catheters that are placed directly in or near the cancer is used.
The way in which radiotherapy is administered depends on the type and stage of the cancer being
treated. External radiation therapy is used to treat renal cell cancer and can also be used as palliative
therapy to relieve symptoms and improve quality of life.
Chemotherapy
Chemotherapy is a cancer treatment in which medications are used to stop the formation of cancer
cells, either by destruction or by preventing their multiplication. When chemotherapy is taken by
mouth or injected into a vein or muscle, medications enter the bloodstream and can reach cancer
cells throughout the body (systemic chemotherapy). When chemotherapy is placed directly in the
cerebrospinal fluid, an organ, or a body cavity such as the abdomen, the medications mostly affect
the cancer cells in those areas (regional chemotherapy). The way chemotherapy is administered
depends on the type and stage of cancer being treated.
Immunotherapy
The immunotherapy is a treatment that used the immune system of the patient to fight cancer.
Substances made by the body or produced in a laboratory are used to boost, direct or restore the
body's natural defences against cancer. This type of cancer treatment is also called biotherapy or
biological therapy.
Targeted therapy
The targeted therapy is a treatment that uses drugs or other substances to identify and attack
specific cancer cells without harming normal cells are used. The antiangiogenic used for a type of
targeted therapy that is administered to treat cancer advanced renal cell. Antiangiogens prevent
blood vessels from forming in a tumor and cause the tumor to stop growing, be destroyed due to
lack of nutrients or reduce its size.
