Clear Cell Adenocarcinoma
Clear Cell Adenocarcinoma is a type of cancer that originates in glandular tissues, characterized by the presence of clear cells when viewed under a microscope. This cancer can occur in various organs, including the kidneys, ovaries, and vagina. It is often associated with specific risk factors, such as exposure to certain chemicals or conditions like diethylstilbestrol (DES) exposure.
Diagnosis typically involves imaging studies and biopsy to confirm the presence of clear cells. Treatment options may include surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation therapy, depending on the stage and location of the cancer. Early detection is crucial for improving outcomes and survival rates.
