The kidneys are one of the main organs in the body responsible for filtering out the blood and eliminating waste materials in form of urine An abnormal growth of cell mass inside the kidney can be a tumor which can later develop into cancer if not treated at the right time. The mass growing inside the kidneys can be benign or malignant (spread to other parts of the body). Smaller cell masses are most likely to be benign whereas large masses of cells are likely to turn out cancerous. The team at Wockhardt Hospital suggest regular screening tests and biopsies to ensure timely diagnosis of kidney cancer. There are more than one available treatment option for treatment of a kidney cancer.

The team of oncologists and oncosurgeons along with a nephrologist at Wockhardt Hospital will go through your case details including history of previous illnesses, any prescriptions drugs and comorbidities and then work out the most effective treatment plan for you. If teh cancer is detected early, there are more treatment options available that may be minimally invasive and easily resolvable, however, in later stages of cancer, surgery is the considered the best treatment option. If the cancer has gone malignant, the doctors may suggest a combination of radiation therapy, chemotherapy, and surgery. The main goal of oncology center at the Wockhardt Hospital is to protect the kidney function and help patients get back to a normal life after getting treated for a kidney cancer.
