A Few Words about Kidney Cancer

Abstract

Kidney cancer is a malignant disease that affects a large number of adults around the world. The kidneys are paired organs, extremely important for the normal functioning of the body. Each person has two kidneys, left and right, located along the spine and below the ribs. The kidneys are the main filters in the human body and perform multiple functions. They are responsible for fluid control, excretion of toxins, mineral salts, production of the hormone erythropoietin which stimulates the production of red blood cells. Each kidney works independently and a person can live with one kidney. When the kidneys are severely damaged, this leads to the need for dialysis. Kidney tumor refers to abnormal tissue growth within the kidney, and can be benign or malignant. This disease affects men more often than women aged 55 to 75 years. The disease develops within one or both kidneys, while in an advanced stage it spreads to the lymph nodes and bloodstream. It is important to know that early diagnosis and effective methods can help treat this type of cancer.
