Subject: New to RCC and need hope
Date: 12/26/2007

My dad was told he may have RCC. I am anxiously awaiting the results from a biopsy of his right pelvis.  The tumor in his left kidney is 3.5 cm.  The last specialist we saw said that it may in fact not be metastatic as the second suspicious mass may not be related to the tumor in his kidney.. Im hopeful of this as I would think that they can just remove the small tumor if its not metestatic. 

Can anyone provide feedback on either:  1- Do you know if small tumors normally spread where the secondary site is double the size of the first?

2- Is it possible to control metestatic RCC if only 2 tumors are found initially..? 

Anything would be helpful.. thanks.

Laura
