Can renal hamartoma become cancerous

summary

The incidence rate of renal hamartoma is relatively low, but like other tumors, the most worrying thing is cancer. Let's see if renal hamartoma can become cancerous.

Can renal hamartoma become cancerous

First of all: renal hamartoma is a benign tumor, generally will not be cancerous, no clinical related cases. Hamartoma can occur not only in kidney, but also in brain, eye, heart, lung, bone and other parts. In the past, renal hamartoma was considered to be a rare disease. In recent years, with the development of medical imaging and people's attention to health examination, the detection rate of renal hamartoma has gradually increased.

Secondly, some larger hamartomas have gastrointestinal discomfort due to compression of duodenum, stomach and other organs. When a large hamartoma suddenly ruptures, the patient will have waist and abdominal pain, hematuria and other symptoms. Patients with severe massive hemorrhage can touch the mass in the abdomen, and even have shock symptoms. Therefore, we should pay enough attention to the serious phenomenon and take effective measures in time.

Finally, unilateral renal hamartoma is a benign lesion with good prognosis. For patients with bilateral, multiple lesions and renal insufficiency, although conservative treatment, but still affect the quality of life. For a small number of cases involving multiple organs, such as lymph nodes, brain, heart, and even tumor thrombus invading blood vessels, the prognosis depends on the condition of the affected organs.

matters needing attention

Although there is no possibility of renal hamartoma canceration, the larger renal hamartoma is still relatively harmful. We should actively treat it and strive to recover as soon as possible.
