Hi, I'm 52 yr old male and a CT just showed up an 8cm mass (which I'm told is highly likely to be cancerous) on my right kidney. I've been given a choice or partial or full radical nephrectomy and asked to consider the literature on both. It feels like an impossible choice and me and my partner are going round in circles trying to choose the best option. I wish the consultant would just tell us which is the better option.
Don't really expect anyone else to answer this for me, but might be helpful to hear from others with a similar 8cm mass with this dilemma.
Thanks in advance
Stuart
