[The partial removal of nonorganic tumors of the retroperitoneal space]

An analysis of observation of 24 patients after partial resection of nonorganic retroperitoneal tumors has shown that 3 years survival of the patients subjected to partial resection of the tumor was equal to (57.7 +/- 10.8)% and 5 years survival was noted in (47.2 +/- 11.1)% of the patients. None of the patients subjected to explorative operations survived more than 3 years.
