Area of Science:

  • Nephrology
  • Oncology
  • Internal Medicine

Background:

  • Malignancies and their treatments (chemotherapy, radiation) are linked to diverse renal diseases.
  • Renal complications significantly contribute to morbidity and mortality in cancer patients.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review the spectrum of renal diseases encountered in cancer patients.
  • To highlight the impact of renal complications on cancer patient outcomes.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review of studies on renal disease in oncology.
  • Synthesis of information on malignancy-associated nephropathies and treatment-induced kidney injury.

Main Results:

  • Common renal issues include acute kidney injury, chronic kidney disease, and electrolyte disturbances.
  • Chemotherapy and radiation can directly cause or exacerbate kidney damage.

Conclusions:

  • Renal disease is a critical concern in cancer care, impacting patient survival.
  • Early recognition and management of kidney problems are essential for improving outcomes in oncology patients.
