What are the symptoms of mouth cancer?

• Kidney cancer is one of the most serious and
  potentially devastating illnesses to have. It can
  have a long-term impact on both physical and
  mental health. Therefore, it is important to
  understand the best methods of kidney cancer
  treatment in order to get the most effective
  care. This article will discuss the various forms
  of treatment available in cancer hospitals in
  Calicut.
• Kidney Cancer Treatments
• Surgery
• There are a few different types of surgery that
  can be used to treat kidney cancer. The most
  common type is called a radical nephrectomy,
  which involves removing the entire kidney, along
  with the surrounding tissue. This is usually the
  best option for people with early-stage kidney
  cancer.
• If the cancer has spread to other parts of the
  body, a more aggressive approach may be
  necessary. In this case, doctors may recommend a
  partial nephrectomy, which removes only the part
  of the kidney that contains the tumor.
  chemotherapy or radiation therapy may also be
  used in addition to surgery.

• Radiation therapy 
• Radiation therapy is a common treatment for
  kidney cancer. It uses high-energy beams, such as
  X-rays, to destroy cancer cells. Radiation
  therapy can be given externally, by aiming the
  beams at the body from outside, or internally, by
  placing radioactive material in needles, seeds,
  wires, or catheters that are placed directly into
  or near the tumor. 
• External radiation therapy is usually given in
  short treatments, five days a week for several
  weeks. The length of treatment depends on the
  type and stage of the tumor, as well as other
  factors. Internal radiation therapy
  (brachytherapy) can be given in one treatment or
  may require several sessions. 
• There are different types of internal radiation
  therapy 
• Neutron beam therapy 
• Radioactive isotope implants 
•  Radioembolization 
• Chemotherapy 
• Chemotherapy is a common treatment for kidney
  cancer. It uses drugs to kill cancer cells or
  stop them from growing. Chemotherapy can be given
  through a vein in the arm, in pill form, or as a
  shot. It can be used alone or with other
  treatments, such as surgery or radiation therapy.

• Targeted therapy
• Targeted therapy is a type of kidney cancer
  treatment that targets specific molecules or
  genes that are involved in the growth and spread
  of cancer cells. It is often used in combination
  with other cancer treatments, such as surgery,
  chemotherapy, and radiation therapy.
• Targeted therapies are designed to kill cancer
  cells while sparing normal cells. These drugs can
  be more effective and have fewer side effects
  than traditional chemotherapy drugs. There are
  many different types of targeted therapies, and
  they are constantly being developed as
  researchers learn more about the biology of
  cancer cells.
• Some common types of targeted therapies include
• Monoclonal antibodies
• Tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs)
• mTOR inhibitors
• VEGF inhibitors
• Clinical trials
• There are a few different types of clinical
  trials that can be conducted for kidney cancer
  patients. The most common type is the phase III
  clinical trial, which compares the effectiveness
  of two or more different treatments. These trials
  are important because they help doctors determine
  which treatment is best for each individual
  patient. Sometimes, a phase II clinical trial may
  also be conducted. This type of trial is less
  common and usually only happens if the first
  treatment doesnt work well.
