Is kidney cancer hereditary? Who doesn't have someone with kidney cancer these days? It seems like every once in a while we hear news like "someone has kidney cancer."

If you are worried about whether you will get kidney cancer, you must first know how kidney cancer comes about. In fact, cancer cells are transformed from normal cells. For example, viruses, radiation, and chemicals stimulate your normal cells and cause them to mutate into cancer cells. The extension of human life span has created opportunities for this mutation. The longer people live, the greater the chance of cell mutation. People always think that people in ancient times did not get cancer. In fact, they died of other reasons before they lived to the age when their cells could mutate.
The genetic inheritance of kidney cancer is real! Kidney cancer is caused by mutation of DNA in cells. DNA is the basic substance of heredity. In this sense, kidney cancer is related to heredity. Does that mean that the next generation of kidney cancer patients will get cancer? The answer is obviously not. Kidney cancer can be divided into "hereditary kidney cancer" and "non-hereditary kidney cancer".
