What is the prognosis of kidney cancer

What is the prognosis for kidney cancer?

The prognosis of kidney cancer depends on the specific situation. If it is an early stage disease, the prognosis is better, and if it is in the late stage, the prognosis is average.

Kidney cancer is a space-occupying tumor of the urinary system. Its etiology is complex and is generally related to genetic factors, chronic kidney disease and other factors. It has many clinical symptoms, such as local pain and hematuria. If it is early-stage kidney cancer, it can be treated by nephrectomy or kidney transplantation. After active and effective treatment, symptoms can be improved and the patient's quality of life can be improved. If the patient maintains a good lifestyle after treatment, it generally will not affect the natural life span.

If the patient is in the late stage of renal cancer and does not pay attention to personal care during treatment, it may affect the recovery of the disease and the prognosis is not particularly good. Patients must maintain good living habits, ensure adequate sleep time, do not stay up late, and can also exercise appropriately according to their physical condition, avoid eating spicy foods such as peppers, ginger, mustard, and do not drink alcohol, so as not to affect the treatment effect.

If the patient chooses surgical treatment, radiation therapy can also be used to consolidate the condition after surgery. After treatment, regular check-ups should be conducted as recommended by the doctor to understand the recovery of the disease, as cancer may recur.
