What Is Kidney Cancer?

Common Symptoms of Kidney Cancer

Kidney Cancer & Partial Nephrectomy

Kidney cancer, also known as renal cell carcinoma (RCC), is a malignant growth that originates in the tissues of the kidney. It often begins in the lining of the small tubes within the kidney and can spread to other parts of the body if not detected early. With timely diagnosis and advanced surgical options, kidney cancer can be effectively managed, preserving kidney function and improving survival outcomes.

  • Blood in urine (hematuria)

  • Persistent pain in the back, side, or flank

  • A lump or mass in the abdomen or side

  • Unexplained weight loss

  • Fatigue and general weakness

  • Fever or night sweats without infection

  • High blood pressure or anemia in some cases

Kidney Cancer Treatment – Partial Nephrectomy

For patients with localized kidney tumors, Partial Nephrectomy (nephron-sparing surgery) is often the preferred treatment. Instead of removing the entire kidney, only the tumor and affected tissue are excised, preserving as much healthy kidney function as possible.

Key Benefits of Partial Nephrectomy:

  • Effective removal of cancerous tissue

  • Preservation of kidney function, reducing the risk of long-term dialysis

  • Minimally invasive options (laparoscopic or robotic surgery) for faster recovery

  • Lower risk of complications compared to radical nephrectomy in suitable cases
