Risk factors transitional cell carcinoma

Risk factors transitional cell carcinoma


Several factors lead to transitional cell carcinoma, and may be environmental factors, genetic or disease in the urinary tract. Doctors think that the vulnerability of transitional cell to toxic substances excreted in the urine, is the key factor for transitional cell carcinoma. The most important risk factors are:

    Generation: after the age of forty, increasing the possibilities for transitional cell cancer.
    Gender: As mentioned, the transitional cell cancer affects males more than women.
    Smoking: The most important factor.
    Exposure to toxic substances at work: in the case of working with paint, metal, rubber, leather, cement, carpets and many other others.
    Hair dyes: toxic substances may be present in hair dyes and exposure to them at work and constantly, increasing the likelihood of transitional cell cancer. Exposure to hair dyes to face temporary and does not increase the risk of transitional cell cancer.
    Lack of drinking water: drinking water and small amounts are insufficient leads to the accumulation of toxic substances in the urine and increases the likelihood of transitional cell cancer. Maintain a sufficient amount of water over water in the urine, and leads to mixing of toxic substances and mix it with water, leading to exit quickly from the urinary tract and thus less damage.
    Aristolochic acid: a type of material in the mix Chinese herbs.
    Chronic inflammation of the bladder.
    The presence of transitional cell cancer in another part of the urinary tract, increases the risk of renal cell cancer in other parts.
    Radiology: exposure to radiation during medical treatment, or when imaging testing increases the likelihood of developing renal cell carcinoma, especially in the bladder.
    Cyclophosphamide : is a drug used in chemotherapy to treat tumors, and may lead to inflammation of the bladder. The use constantly increases the likelihood of transitional cell cancer, especially in the bladder. Mensa  is prevent material damage Cyclophosphamide and reduce the likelihood of transitional cell carcinoma, so intakes advised when dealing with Cyclophosphamide.
     Genetic factors are also responsible for transitional cell cancer.

TCC-Transitional Cell Carcinoma

TCC-Transitional Cell Carcinoma
Transitional cell carcinoma is a cancer arising from the transitional cells, which line the urinary tract cavity. Members of the urinary tract are:

    Renal pelvis : transitional cell start of the renal pelvis, which is the part that begins next kidneys, where urine secretion gather.
    Ureter : apply urine to pass in the ureter, a member of an accurate and long connecting the kidneys and bladder, and line the transitional cell Bgeoffh.
    Bladder : move to the bladder where urine collects and secreted into the urethra.
    Urethra : the tube that connects the bladder and the outside world is secretion of urine out of the body. The lining of the bladder and urethra transitional cell too.
Because transitional cells lining the urinary tract, the transitional cell cancer may appear in any member of the urinary tract. Although the transitional cell cancer may appear in the kidney, but that 5% of the cases is to be in the kidneys. While the remaining cases are in the ureter, bladder or urethra, especially in the bladder. Most cases of transitional cell carcinoma are in the bladder. May appear several transitional cell carcinoma tumors contrast, several members of the transitional cell carries. A transitional cell carcinoma 90% of bladder cancer.
Does not constitute a transitional cell carcinoma leading cause of death, and can be treated in most cases. But transitional cell carcinoma may appear several times in the patient even after treatment.
Transitional cell cancer affects men more than women, and affects the elderly sixty after generation. The transitional cell cancer of the skin more eggs than others.

What is kidney cancer and types of kidney cancer

What is kidney cancer

 
Kidney cancer is a cancer that affects the kidney tissue and lead to malignant tumors in the kidneys. Kidney cancer leads to symptoms as pain in the waist, high temperatures, and the presence of blood in the urine. Difficult to detect kidney cancer in the early stages and that it does not cause symptoms early. However, the slow-growing kidney cancer does not spread quickly, making treatment and cure it possible, despite the late discovery. Kidney cancer may lead to complications as obstruction and kidney function. There are several types of kidney cancer, and treatment varies according to the type of asset. Can treat kidney cancer surgical treatment to remove the tumor, or treatment Immunological in advanced cases.

Represent kidney tumors approximately 3% of the tumors in adults, and usually appear in the elderly and specifically the 60-70 generations.
 



Often kidney cancer are classified according to the cells from which they arise. It is agreed that kidney cancer is classified to two basic types:

The 80-85% of kidney tumors.



It is very important classification of kidney cancer, because the symptoms and treatment may vary from one type to another.

There are other types of kidney tumors, which may be malicious, or benign (Benign) - that is, they do not spread - but less prevalent and are considered rare.

Wilms'   Tumor is a tumor in the kidney may affect children only.
