A member asked:
Diagnosed with renal cell carcinoma last week said i was stage 1?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Good prognosis: Stage 1: the cancer is only within the kidney, and has not spread. This stage has the best long-term survival and is most likely to be cured with surgery. The five year survival rate is almost 90%.
