Collecting duct carcinoma is a rare and aggressive form of kidney cancer that begins in the Bellini duct. Aggressive cancers tend to grow and spread rapidly to other parts of the body. Renal cell carcinoma often shows no symptoms until it has reached an advanced stage. It can spread to distant organs such as the bones, liver, lungs, and lymph nodes. This cancer typically affects younger adults and is more common in men than in women.
Many sufferers of Renal Cell Carcinoma Collecting Duct struggle because they feel that their disease doesn’t have the same level of awareness as more common cancers. Without a Ribbon is an Australian non-profit organisation that believes that rare cancers should never go unnoticed. We aim to provide a detailed set of resources and information for anyone suffering from rare cancers such as Renal Cell Carcinoma Collecting Duct. We have recently created an Renal Cell Carcinoma Collecting Duct resource page to help sufferers understand their disease. It covers the symptoms, available treatments and other important information.
We hope that this resource page will help you or a friend/family member to learn about their illness and aid them through their battle with the disease.
