In recent years, the concept of using classic radical nephrectomy to treat renal cancer has changed, especially in the changes in the scope of surgical resection (such as selecting appropriate cases for radical nephrectomy with preservation of the ipsilateral adrenal gland and nephron-sparing surgery), and a consensus has been reached, and the treatment method is no longer a single open surgery.

It is recommended that experienced Chinese medicine practitioners use targeted Chinese medicine for treatment after observation, auscultation, questioning and palpation. On the one hand, the traditional method of syndrome differentiation and treatment is used to adjust the functions of the internal organs and restore the patient's vitality, so as to better improve the patient's quality of life and inhibit the development of cancer cells; at the same time, medication should be used according to the type of cancer cell cases, that is, Chinese medicine for special treatment should be used, and corresponding meridian-guiding medicine should be used to make the drug's effect reach the diseased area directly. During the entire treatment process, not only traditional decoctions should be used, but also processed and purified Chinese patent medicines should be used, which are more suitable for patients to take. The comprehensive treatment of these aspects cooperates with each other to achieve the best treatment effect.

The treatment of early kidney cancer is mainly surgical resection. Other treatment methods such as radiotherapy and immunotherapy can be selected according to the patient's condition and wishes. After undergoing surgery, radiotherapy, and chemotherapy, even if the treatment is successful, kidney cancer patients should not be complacent. After treatment, kidney cancer patients will be physically weak, have reduced immunity, and recover slowly. There will also be a certain degree of risk of cancer cell recurrence and metastasis.
