[|AI|]  A swelling (lump) on the kidney have certain imaging features which distinguish benign from malignant lesions. If your doctor says it appears malignant cancer then staging workup should be done including CT scan of chest and a bone scan if required. If the tumor is confined to the kidney then surgical resection would be required and is curative. If it has metastasized to other parts of body then a palliative surgical resection may be required since he is bleeding in his urine. It will be followed by certain Chat Doctor. Please discuss it with your urologist and oncologist.
