How to save the lives of kidney cancer patients

Kidney cancer patients are divided into early, middle and late stages. Kidney cancer may cause some systemic manifestations, such as unexplained fever, high blood pressure, loss of appetite, fatigue, weight loss, anemia, etc. Late stage cancer is usually more difficult to treat, and many patients with late stage cancer wonder how long they can live. So how can early stage kidney cancer patients prolong their lifespan?

Early stage renal cancer is small and has not spread or metastasized. Surgery, such as radical nephrectomy, can be chosen for treatment. The 5-year survival rate after surgical resection of early stage renal cancer is high. However, postoperative chemotherapy, immunotherapy, and traditional Chinese medicine should be used to prevent recurrence.
How long a patient with mid- to late-stage renal cancer can live depends mainly on whether the treatment method is appropriate and the patient's physical condition. The main goal for patients with advanced renal cancer is to improve their quality of life and prolong their survival. Clinically, patients with mid- to late-stage renal cancer can choose radiotherapy, chemotherapy, and traditional Chinese medicine. In order to prevent early-stage renal cancer from developing into mid- to late-stage renal cancer, it is recommended that people over 40 years old have a physical examination every six months to detect the disease early and receive timely treatment.
