ABSTRACT
Renal cancer is a neoplasm that represents 3% of urological pathologies below bladder and prostate cancer. Its incidence has been reported between 50 and 70 years with a predominance in men compared to women (3:1). Its presentation under 40 years of age is considered rare, representing only 8.7% of all cases of renal cell carcinoma. The risk factors that have been attributed the most for the development of renal cell carcinoma are smoking, obesity and hypertension. Studies on the use of analgesics such as acetaminophen have also been found to relatively increase the risk of developing this pathology, but there are still more trials that can demonstrate this. Its classic presentation as pain, hematuria and palpable mass only occurs in 10% of the population and it presents in advanced stages. Incidental diagnosis has increased with the use of ultrasound as the initial imaging study in patients with abdominal symptoms. The therapeutic approach will depend on whether at the time of diagnosis it is a local, locally advanced, or metastatic disease.REFERENCES
