Kidney and bone cancer


by: Diana on Thu, Jul 05 2007

My husband (64 years old) was xray’d for broken ribs and it showed a 4 centimeter mass in his right kidney. A CT scan and nuclear bone scan showed bone cancer in his ribs, sternum, shoulder and mid-back. At first they said they’d remove the kidney but now our doctor says their medical team decided against it. They’re going to do a biopsy of the tissue and eventually treat the kidney with medication. Anyone else experienced kidney cancer that spread to the bone?
