Kidney Tumour Treatment
Understanding Kidney Tumours - Comprehensive Care for Your Journey
Kidney tumours develop when abnormal cells grow uncontrollably in kidney tissue. The kidneys are vital organs that filter waste from blood and produce urine. Renal cell carcinoma represents approximately 85% of all kidney cancers, while other types include transitional cell carcinoma and Wilms tumour in children. Most kidney tumours are malignant (cancerous), though some benign masses like oncocytomas may occur. Early-stage kidney tumours often produce no symptoms, emphasizing the importance of regular health screenings. Common signs include blood in urine, persistent back or side pain, unexplained weight loss, fatigue, and intermittent fever. Risk factors encompass smoking, obesity, high blood pressure, family history, and certain genetic conditions like von Hippel-Lindau syndrome. Understanding your specific diagnosis helps guide treatment decisions and improves outcomes.
Treatment Excellence Through Advanced Medical Care
Zanish Cancer Hospital provides comprehensive kidney tumour treatment using evidence-based protocols aligned with international guidelines from the American Urological Association and European Association of Urology. Our multidisciplinary approach combines surgical expertise, medical oncology, and radiation therapy when appropriate. Treatment selection depends on tumour size, location, stage, patient age, and overall kidney function.
Surgical options include partial nephrectomy (kidney-sparing surgery) for smaller tumours and radical nephrectomy for larger masses. Our surgical team specializes in minimally invasive techniques including laparoscopic and robotic-assisted procedures, which typically result in faster recovery times and reduced complications compared to traditional open surgery. For advanced cases, we offer targeted therapy medications like tyrosine kinase inhibitors and immunotherapy treatments including checkpoint inhibitors.
Our oncology specialists collaborate closely with urologic surgeons, radiologists, pathologists, and nuclear medicine physicians to ensure optimal treatment coordination. Quality assurance protocols include pre-operative medical optimization, intraoperative monitoring systems, and comprehensive post-surgical care. We maintain detailed outcome tracking and follow evidence-based guidelines for treatment modifications based on patient response and tolerance.

Frequently Asked Questions
Early kidney tumours often cause no symptoms. Warning signs may include blood in urine (hematuria), persistent flank pain, unexplained weight loss, fatigue, and fever. However, many kidney tumours are discovered incidentally during imaging studies for other medical conditions, highlighting the importance of regular health screenings.
Diagnosis typically involves blood tests to assess kidney function, urine analysis, and imaging studies including CT scans, MRI, or ultrasound. Tissue biopsy is sometimes necessary for definitive diagnosis, though many kidney masses can be diagnosed based on imaging characteristics alone.
Treatment depends on tumour size, location, and patient factors. Options include partial nephrectomy (removing only the tumour while preserving kidney function), radical nephrectomy (complete kidney removal), and minimally invasive approaches using laparoscopic or robotic techniques. Our team discusses all appropriate options based on individual circumstances.
Post-surgical treatment depends on pathology results and tumour characteristics. Some patients require no additional therapy, while others may benefit from targeted medications or immunotherapy. Our multidisciplinary team develops personalized follow-up plans including regular monitoring and surveillance protocols.
We provide comprehensive support including nutritional counseling, psychological services, financial assistance, and family support programs. Patient navigators coordinate care activities and ensure seamless communication between healthcare team members throughout your treatment journey.
Follow-up schedules depend on treatment type and individual risk factors. Initially, appointments may occur every few months, gradually extending to annual visits for long-term survivors. Regular imaging studies and laboratory tests monitor for recurrence and assess kidney function over time.
