Kidney and prostate cancer update

Routine screening helps detect prostate cancers, but there’s been a troubling uptick in advanced-stage diagnoses. At the same time, more kidney cancers are being found incidentally, and treated successfully. Gennady Bratslavsky, MD, discusses both of these cancers in this interview. Bratslavsky is professor and chair of the department of urology at Upstate, and he and his colleagues care for patients with prostate and kidney cancers.
