Renal cancer is a progressive disease that spreads to the lu...more

Aortic stenosis is a heart valve disorder that narrows or obstructs the aortic valve opening. Narrowing of the aortic valve prevents the valve from opening properly and obstructs the flow of blood from the left ventricle to the aort...more

Renal cell carcinoma is the most common type of kidney cancer and accounts for 90 percent of all kidney cancers. Young children can develop another kind of kidney cancer termed as Wilms tumour.

The primary reason is the improvement of imaging techniques and the lack of healthy lifestyle practices by most adults.
