Results in the treatment of renal tumours

151 Patients having renal tumours were treated in our Urologic Department between 1975 and 1992; 86.1% of them were operated. Application of a new surgical method introduced in 1983, resulted achieving the level of international standards given in the literature: the survival of patients with tumours in stage of T1-T2 increased to 90%. Further progress is not expected from the perfection of surgical techniques, but from the use of new markers, and new methods of tumour-immunology.
