How is renal carcinoma detected?

L Ekelund, K Jonsson

    International Urology and Nephrology
    |January 1, 1977
    PubMed
    Summary

    This study reviewed 369 patients with renal carcinoma, finding that urography can detect tumors incidentally. High-quality urography is crucial for evaluating the entire urinary system in patients over 30.

    Area of Science:

    • Urology
    • Radiology
    • Oncology

    Background:

    • Renal carcinoma diagnosis often relies on identifying primary symptoms and signs.
    • Urography is a key diagnostic imaging technique for the urinary system.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To review the primary symptoms and signs indicating renal carcinoma in patients undergoing urography.
    • To assess the diagnostic value of urography in detecting renal tumors, including incidental findings.

    Main Methods:

    • Retrospective review of 369 patients with diagnosed renal carcinoma.
    • Analysis of symptoms, signs, and diagnostic findings from urography reports.

    Main Results:

    • Gross hematuria was observed in 33% of patients.
    • Signs of malignancy were present in 20%, and metastases were diagnosed first in 13%.
    • Renal tumors were incidental findings in 15% of cases, detected during urography for other conditions.

    Conclusions:

    • High-quality urography is essential for comprehensive evaluation of the entire urinary system.
    • Renal carcinoma can be incidentally detected by urography in patients over 30 years old.
