One of the first signs is blood in the urine. Since this usually causes no pain and the amount of blood in the urine is very small, this symptom is often overlooked.

The veterinarian first uses imaging techniques such as ultrasound and CT. However, since no conclusions can be drawn about factors such as tumour type, stage or malignancy, a histopathological examination is also carried out. The suspicious kidney cells from the body of the dog are examined and tested for certain tumour markers.<\/p>\n<h3><a name=\"behnierkrehu\">Treatment<\/a><\/h3>\n<p>In kidney cancer, many tumour types are possible, from adenoma to carcinoma to fibroma. If the tumour is a secondary tumour (metastases), lymphoma may also be considered. Once the type of tumour has been identified, a treatment plan can be drawn up. This plan includes, for example, the therapy to be applied as well as guidelines for everyday life (food, exercise, etc.). The therapy of choice for kidney cancer is usually the surgical removal of the tumour. During surgery, as much tumor mass as possible should be removed. After the surgery, the dog is usually treated with chemotherapy and\/or radiotherapy. Another treatment option for tumours of the kidney is dendritic cell therapy.<\/p>\n<h3><a name=\"dendrizenierkrehu\">Dendritic Cell Therapy<\/a><\/h3>\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.petbiocell.com\/dendritic-cell-therapy\" title=\"dendritic cell therapy dog\">dendritic cell therapy<\/a> is based on the body&#8217;s own dendritic cells. Through the cultivation and recirculation of the cells, the immune system of the dogs is to be stimulated again to fight the tumour cells independently. The aim of our gentle immunotherapy is to fight kidney cancer and not only to increase life expectancy, but also to improve the quality of life.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Kidney cancer is relatively rare in dogs, but in most clinical cases it is avery aggressive disease.
