Macmillan and Cancerbackup have merged. Together we provide free, high quality information for all.
How we produce our information|
In some cases, kidney cancer can come back after treatment. It may come back in the same area in which it first started (a local recurrence) or it may develop in a different part of the body (a metastasis or secondary cancer). If this happens, your doctor will explain the extent of the cancer and how it will be treated.
Learning that your cancer has come back can feel devastating. We have a section on coping with advanced cancer| which you may find helpful. You may also find it helpful to contact our cancer support specialists|.
