Onconephrology Treatments for Kidney Dysfunction

Onconephrology is a specialized field that focuses on kidney health in patients with cancer. Treatments aim to manage kidney dysfunction caused by cancer or its treatments, such as chemotherapy or radiation. This may involve adjusting medications to protect the kidneys, treating kidney-related complications, and monitoring kidney function closely. Onconephrologists work with oncologists to ensure a patient’s cancer treatment continues safely while addressing any kidney issues that arise, helping to maintain overall health and improve outcomes for patients facing both cancer and kidney problems.
