What Is Kidney Cancer?
The kidneys are two organs situated in the abdomen, that are involved in clearing the blood of toxic metabolites and producing urine. When a tumor develops in this organ, its called kidney cancer. Kidney cancer may be benign, malignant or undefined.
Is Kidney Cancer Common In New Delhi India ?
Unfortunately, kidney cancer is increasing in Delhi in particular and India overall.. There are many reasons for this sudden rise. One maybe increased habit of active and passive smoking in Delhi and Gurgaon. Though not scientifically proven, it is my belief that hectic lifestyle and work stress is contributing. Obesity and diet are debatable causes.
Prevention is the key, but if one is unfortunate to be diagnosed with kidney cancer he or she requires immediate treatment.
What Are the Symptoms Of Kidney Cancer?
Kidney cancer is a cancer that creeps up unexpectedly. It is mostly detected when the patient would get a routine ultrasound or during a health checkup.
But some symptoms may lead to a diagnosis. The common symptoms of kidney cancer are
- Hematuria or Blood in urine.
- Flank pain or pain in back
- Continuous mild fever
- Headache due to high BP
- Recent onset hypertension
- Swelling in the scrotum – Varicocele
Though these symptoms are non specific, your doctor may order some tests to detect the disease on time.
Investigations to Plan Surgery for Kidney Cancers (Renal Tumors)
Your urologist will like to order some tests before he can diagnose and proceed to treat your kidney tumor.
The investigations needed are (approximate cost)
- Contrast Enhanced CT of the abdomen and Chest – Kidney cancer is eminently diagnosed by a CECT scan. A cect provides all the necessary information needed to diagnose and treat kidney tumors. ( Cost 9000 INR / 150 USD)
- MRI -In patients not able to undergo a CECT, MRI is a valid choice and almost as good. Though CECT is better. ( Cost 9000 INR / 150 USD)
- Contrast Ultrasound – In some difficult cases, contrast ultrasound may help your urologist to reach a diagnosis.
- PET-CT- As of now PET CT is not routinely recommended, but it has an emerging role, especially in advanced kidney cancer. ( Cost 19000 INR / 300 USD)
Is Biopsy from Kidney Cancer Required?
Ideally speaking, biopsy from kidney cancer is not required. Because it is painful, can give false reports and even lead to your disease spreading. But in certain cases, it is prudent to biopsy the lesion. When the doubtful lesion maybe a lymphoma, tuberculosis or oncocytoma a biopsy may help.
It requires careful evaluation by your urologist.

What Are the Surgical Treatment Options For Kidney Cancer?
There are many treatment options for kidney cancer available in Delhi India. The cure of Kidney cancer depends on the stage and extent of tumor. In early and even in advanced stages the diseased kidney has to be removed surgically. As it continues to throw cancerous cells into the system. Once the kidney is removed depending on the extent of disease further therapy may be required.
The Treatment Options are –
- Radical Nephrectomy – Complete removal of the diseased kidney

Radical Nephrectomy is a urooncological surgery procedure in which the diseased kidney is removed en tota with all its draining lymphatics. This ensures complete disease removal along with all ways for kidney cancer to spread.

WHAT ARE THE DISADVANTAGES OF RADICAL NEPHRECTOMY? The disadvantage of radical nephrectomy is that it entails complete removal of the kidney. If you are diabetic or hypertensive and at risk of loss to another kidney, this places you at a risk of kidney failure. And there is always a small risk of getting cancer in the other kidney too. The solution to this partial nephrectomy or nephron sparing surgery.
OPEN RADICAL NEPHRECTOMY OR LAPAROSCOPIC RADICAL NEPHRECTOMY? Open Radical Nephrectomy is the removal of the kidney via an incision in the flank or below the chest (subcostal). It is necessary for larger or bulky kidney tumors. But it leaves a large scar, is a little more painful and may cause hernia later. Laparoscopic radical nephrectomy is the standard of care today. Via two small incisions and 5 mm pfannensteil incision the kidney can be delivered with minimal scarring and excellent pain relief. The choice of approach depends on the size of the kidney tumor, and is best decided by your urologist. Do not choose laparoscopic when not indicated as it can compromise results.
