Kidneys are two bean-shaped organs, each about the size of a fist. Their main job is to purify the blood and remove the waste products from it. Kidney cysts or tumors are pouches of fluid that form on or in the kidneys. It is more likely to form kidney cancer, hence, it is necessary to consult a doctor.

Dr. Abhay Kumar, Consultant - Oncology, Uro - Oncology, Urology at Narayana Multispeciality Hospital, Howrah shares in detail about the diagnosis, symptoms, causes, treatment, surgery of kidney tumors, cyst and cancer during the time of the pandemic.
