What is the recurrence rate of early-stage kidney cancer after excision

The recurrence rate of early-stage renal cancer after cutting is related to the tumor pathology type, patient’s own state, life habits, etc. There are no accurate statistics to estimate. 1. Pathological type: according to the statistics of guidelines, in terms of pathological subtypes, smoky cell carcinoma and papillary cell carcinoma are less likely to recur than clear cell carcinoma; at the same time, the higher the degree of malignancy, the higher the recurrence rate. 2. Patient’s own state: generally speaking, patients with good basic conditions, no diabetes, anemia, high blood pressure and other diseases recover better after surgery, and the probability of recurrence is relatively small. 3. Lifestyle habits: at present, smoking and obesity are recognized risk factors of kidney cancer, such as not paying attention to quit smoking and lose weight properly after surgery, which may also increase the recurrence rate of kidney cancer. After resection of early-stage kidney cancer, one should follow the doctor’s advice for regular review to observe the postoperative recovery.
