What is renal hamartoma

Renal hamartoma is a benign tumor. Generally speaking, it has little impact on the patient's body and can be treated with traditional conservative methods. However, if the renal hamartoma is large and compresses the related nerves, tissues and organs, it will have a relatively severe impact on the patient to a great extent. During the treatment process, patients should improve their bad living habits and cooperate with the treatment.

We often hear the word "tumor" in our daily life. Every time we hear it, our hearts tighten and we regard diseases with "tumor" as a scourge. In fact, people's misunderstanding of these diseases is mainly due to their lack of understanding of these diseases and the lack of knowledge about related treatment and prevention. Today, we will introduce a similar disease to you - renal hamartoma, so that you can understand this disease more clearly and directly, provide help to patients, and let healthy people prevent it before it happens.

Strictly speaking, renal hamartoma is a type of tumor, but it is not a malignant tumor. It is a tumor-like structure formed by normal tissues in the human body, such as blood vessels, smooth muscles, adipose tissue, etc., appearing in places where they should not appear, and arranged and combined in a certain proportion. From this point of view, renal hamartoma does not have a great impact on our body. It is a benign tissue hyperplasia. At the same time, it appears not only in the kidneys, but also in many parts of our body, and often in adult women, especially women between 40 and 60 years old. Of course, men will also suffer from this disease to a certain extent, but the incidence is relatively lower than that of women.

However, in clinical practice, renal hamartoma can be roughly divided into two states. One is a single disease, which is relatively common, but its specific cause has not been found so far. Therefore, when patients know that they have renal hamartomas in their bodies, they should not panic or worry too much. If the renal hamartoma is relatively small, the impact on the body will be relatively small, and it can be well solved through some more conservative methods. If the renal hamartoma is relatively large, surgery is required as soon as possible. The other is a manifestation of tuberous sclerosis. This situation is relatively rare. It is a rare hereditary disease that often occurs in younger patients.

It can be seen from this that renal hamartoma has a relatively small impact on our body. If we pay attention to rest and maintain a good lifestyle and eating habits, we can prevent the occurrence of this disease to a certain extent. Therefore, not all diseases with "tumors" are so terrible. As long as we have relevant understanding of them, take measures, and actively cooperate, then health will automatically come to us.
