Abstract:
In 84 patients after nephrectomy due to renal cell carcinoma a computerized tomography was performed to evaluate local tumor recurrence. The findings are classified stage-dependent. Other metastatic lesions were found by conventional radiologic methods. Based on stage-dependent different occurrence of metastases or local recurrences recommendations are made to the use of computerized tomography in the follow-up of patients suffering from renal cell carcinoma after nephrectomy.
