The value of urography following lymphography in malignant diseases
Abstract:
The need for urography following ascending pedal lymphography in malignant disease has been studied in 298 consecutive patients. Forty per cent of the urograms were abnormal. Urographic abnormalities due to the disease being investigated were heralded by abnormal lymphography except in four patients, three with carcinoma of the bladder and one with carcinoma of the cervix. The majority of abnormalities unrelated to the disease being investigated were of no significance. In a small number there was congenital malposition of the kidney so that it fell within the proposed field of treatment. It is concluded that it is unnecessary to do routine urography with every lymphogram. Indications for urography are abnormality or suspected abnormality of the lymphogram, failure to locate the kidneys on plain films and clinical indications such as carcinoma of the bladder or carcinoma of the cervix.
