Diagnostic

Quel que soit le signe révélateur, le diagnostic est confirmé par des examens cliniques et radiologiques. L'examen clinique est le plus souvent normal. Il peut mettre en évidence une masse dans la région lombaire, régulière ou bosselée, plus ou moins mobile, correspondant à la tumeur.

Treatment of renal cancer

Renal cancer is the commonest kidney tumour. This is usually an adenocarcinoma (80% of cases). It is also known as “clear cell carcinoma”. Other malignant kidney tumours are much less common: tubulopapillary or papillary renal cell carcinomas, chromophobe renal cell carcinoma, collecting duct carcinoma, etc.   
Each type of tumour has its own very specific treatment.
