Current Oncology | Kidney Cancer Awareness Month

Kidney cancer, also known as renal cell carcinoma, is a type of cancer that forms in the kidneys. It typically originates in the cells lining the small tubes within the organ. Treatment options include surgery, targeted therapy, and immunotherapy. March is the Kidney Cancer Awareness Month. We would like to take this opportunity to express our gratitude to all of the researchers who have contributed to this field. In particular, we would like to share some of the innovative research findings and a high-quality Special Issue in the field of kidney cancer, published in Current Oncology (ISSN: 1718-7729). We hope this announcement will provide useful information for this field. The list of relevant papers is presented below.
