Symptoms

For many people, kidney cancer is found incidentally when they have imaging done for other conditions. For others, kidney cancer presents with some symptoms, including:

  • Abdominal pain
  • Blood in the urine
  • Back pain
  • Unintentional weight loss
  • Anemia (or low blood count)

Some patients are at increased risk for developing kidney cancer, including those with certain hereditary disorders such as:

  • Von Hippel-Lindau (VHL)
  • Tuberous Sclerosis
  • Birt Hogg Dube Syndrome

Patients with these syndromes should be monitored for any abnormal growths found on their kidneys.
