What is the cause of kidney cancer

What are the causes of kidney cancer?

Kidney cancer may be caused by genetic factors, long-term smoking, drug abuse, etc.

The details are as follows:

1. Genetic factors:

Kidney cancer is a common malignant tumor. Clinical studies suggest that the cause of this disease may be related to genetic factors. If there is a patient with this disease in the immediate family, the risk of the disease may increase.

2. Long-term smoking:

Smoke contains a large amount of nicotine, tar and other harmful components, which usually enter the kidneys for metabolism. Long-term smoking may cause the above harmful components to damage kidney cells, reduce kidney function and induce kidney cancer.

3. Drug abuse:

In daily life, if you often abuse drugs, blindly increase the dosage of drugs, or blindly increase the duration of medication, it may cause the drugs to enter the kidneys for metabolism, increase kidney toxicity, and thus lead to kidney cancer.

In addition to the common causes mentioned above, it may also be related to underlying diseases such as hypertension and diabetes. If you are in the early stages of the disease, you can treat it through nephrectomy, kidney transplantation and other surgeries. If you are in the middle and late stages of the disease, you can use paclitaxel injection, cisplatin injection, carboplatin injection and other chemotherapy drugs under the guidance of a doctor. During the treatment, you also need to pay attention to maintaining a good mood to avoid excessive tension.
