BACKGROUND Unlike cancer of the bladder, cancer of the renal pelvis is not considered an occupational cancer and little is known about risks among women. METHODS Using the Swedish national census and cancer registry-linked data (1971-1989), we identified transitional cell cancers of the renal pelvis (N = 1,374) and bladder (N = 21,591). Correlation between cancer sites for the standardized in...

Background: Renal tumours are 16th most common malignancies in the world accounting for 2.2% of all new and 1.8% cancer deaths. Histopathological classification renal along with tumour grade stage is proven to have prognostic value. Material Methods: This was a retrospective study conducted Department Pathology at B.P. Koirala Memorial Cancer Hospital Bharatpur from January 2017 December 2019 i...

Cancer has become more common for its progress and has less chance of treatment. The identification and prevention of cancer has been a bit difficult. Among all the types of cancers ureteral cancer is a new arising cancer which is mostly seen in women when compared to men and also in the patients with renal cancer, pelvic cancer and even in kidney failure patients. Most of the studies reported ...

There is a well known association between end stage renal disease and the development of kidney cancer in the native kidney of patients requiring renal replacement therapy. There is now emerging evidence that lesser degrees of renal insufficiency (chronic kidney disease, CKD) are also associated with an increased likelihood of cancer in general and kidney cancer in particular. Nephropathologica...

INTRODUCTION MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are non-coding RNAs that regulate multiple cell processes during cancer progression. Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is a malignancy with a poor prognosis. In this study, we aimed to investigate the roles of miR-630 in RCC progression. MATERIAL AND METHODS Expression of miR-630 was evaluated by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) in four renal...

Epidemiologic studies have reported that moderate alcohol consumption is inversely associated with the risk of renal cancer. However, there is no information available on the associations in renal cancer subsites. From 1992 through to 2010, 477,325 men and women in the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition cohort were followed for incident renal cancers (n = 931). Baselin...

metastatic lesions represent 1-8% of all malignant tumors of the mouth and jaws, which are regarded as rare sites of metastases from different primary tumors. metastases in mouth soft tissue are also rare, and within these it is on the gums where they more frequently occur. primary tumors which metastasize to the mouth are most commonly: lung, breast, and kidney. clear cell carcinoma is the mos...

BACKGROUND A relationship has been suggested between kidney or ureter stones and the development of urinary tract cancers. In this study, a population-based cohort of patients hospitalized for kidney or ureter stones in Sweden was followed for up to 25 years to examine subsequent risks for developing renal cell, renal pelvis/ureter, or bladder cancer. METHODS Data from the national Swedish In...

Innovations and Challenges in Renal Cancer, chaired by Michael B. Atkins, was held April 28 to 29, 2006 in Cambridge, Massachusetts. The conference brought together leading experts in the fields of cancer research, medical oncology, urology, immunology, radiology, and immunotherapy, with the goal of advancing the field of renal cancer treatment by critiquing new data from ongoing clinical trial...

The number of renal cancers has increased over the last ten years and patient survival in advanced stages remains very poor. Therefore, new therapeutic approaches for renal cancer are essential. Englerin A is a natural product with a very potent and selective cytotoxicity against renal cancer cells. This makes it a promising drug candidate that may improve current treatment standards for patien...
