How to treat early stage renal hamartoma

How to treat hamartoma in the early stage? This is a question that many hamartoma patients are concerned about. Because the location of hamartoma is different, the treatment methods of various hamartomas will also be different. Renal hamartoma is a common type of hamartoma. There are many treatment methods for renal hamartoma. Renal angiomyolipoma is a benign tumor. Small tumors can be followed up for a long time without treatment. Let me introduce to you how to treat renal hamartoma in the early stage?

1. Embolization: Patients with bleeding should undergo arterial embolization. After treatment, the patient's bleeding was stopped, but the tumor did not shrink. To remove the tumor, surgical treatment or renal artery branch embolization should be performed on the basis of protecting renal function.

2. Nephron-sparing surgery: Some patients have mild symptoms and do not need treatment. However, after a period of time, when the tumor grows from less than 4 cm to 5 cm, surgical treatment should be considered. The commonly used surgery is enucleation. This surgery mainly achieves the purpose of curing the disease by removing the tumor at the edge of the kidney.

3. Nephrectomy: Suitable for patients with severe disease and large tumors. If the disease is bilateral, the first important factor to be considered during treatment is to preserve the renal unit. In a small number of patients, the tumor will enlarge and invade other organs, such as lymph nodes, and will develop malignant lesions. The kidney should be surgically removed to cure the disease.

4. Kidney transplantation or hemodialysis: It is the most effective treatment method and can cure the disease, but transplantation requires a prerequisite, that is, there is a suitable kidney that is not rejected by the patient. Kidney transplantation is suitable for patients with renal failure, those who have failed to respond to surgical treatment, those with ruptured and bleeding tumors, and those with bilateral lesions.

The above are the early treatment methods for hamartoma. Whether it can be cured depends on your condition. For your health, please go to the hospital for treatment in time.
