Скачать или смотреть Mayo Clinic Minute - How is kidney cancer treated?

About 50,000 people in the U.S. are diagnosed with kidney cancer. Risks factors for developing this type of cancer include environmental exposures like smoking, high blood pressure, a history of kidney failure, obesity, or not having a healthy weight. And there are also hereditary syndromes that may your risk for kidney cancer.

Dr. Thai Ho, a Mayo Clinic oncologist who specializes in genitourinary malignancies, says there are no screening tests specifically for kidney cancer. When it is discovered early, it's usually from an imaging test for another issue.
