title: Renal adenocarcinoma: prognostics and treatment reflected by survival.
abstract: A retrospective study of 164 patients with renal adenocarcinoma has reconfirmed the highly malignant potential of this neoplasm. Stage and size of the tumor appear to be the best prognostic parameters. Radical surgery appears to have improved survival statistics. Follow-up must be indefinite since late metastases are not uncommon.
