Cancer Type
Kidney Cancer
Kidney cancer usually starts in the lining of tiny tubes inside the kidney (renal cell carcinoma). Blood in urine or flank pain may appear, though some tumours are found on imaging first.
Early detection improves outcomes. If you notice warning signs, see a doctor promptly or visit a World Cancer Care screening camp.
