Kidney cancer is among the 10 most common cancers in the United States, yet it often develops silently — with many patients diagnosed incidentally during imaging for unrelated issues. As rates continue to rise nationwide, physicians are urging greater awareness of risk factors, early warning signs and evolving treatment options.
