8.4 cm tumor on right kidney: What questions should I ask?

Posted by msvjv @msvjv, Sep 13 11:54am

Has anyone been treated for a large malignant kidney tumor? How big was it and was it removed with follow up chemo or other treatment?

I received CT urogram results yesterday with no staging but primary says it’s malignant. I can’t eat and didn’t sleep last night. I feel like I’m drowning.

I see a urologist on Tuesday. Do you have any suggestions for questions I should ask?

Hi Colleen. Surgery went ok. Not a great path report. Exploring options at this time and looking for second opinion on treatment.
