KIDNEY CANCER DIAGNOSIS AND TREATMENT IN KENYA
Kidney cancer occurs when abnormal cells in the kidney grow uncontrollably, interfering with the organ’s role in filtering waste from the blood. The most common type is renal cell carcinoma.
Risk Factors and Symptoms
Key risk factors include smoking, obesity, high blood pressure, family history, and exposure to harmful chemicals. Early symptoms may be subtle but can include:
• Blood in the urine
• Persistent pain in the back or side
• Unexplained weight loss
• Fatigue
Diagnosis and Treatment
Diagnosis typically involves imaging tests (ultrasound, CT scan, MRI) and may include blood, urine tests, or a biopsy. Treatment options depend on the cancer stage and can include surgery, targeted therapy, and immunotherapy.
Take Action
Early detection improves treatment success. If you experience any concerning symptoms or have risk factors, seek medical evaluation promptly. For a thorough evaluation, diagnosis, and management of kidney cancer, visit Dr. Onyango Oluoch or call him at 0721850826.
