title: [Analysis of 88 adenocarcinomas of the kidney: evolution of diagnosis and prognosis].
abstract: Over the last decade, the evolution in the methods for imaging diagnosis incorporated to the clinical routine, has contributed to improve the prognosis of renal adenocarcinoma by making available an early diagnosis. Eighty-eight kidney tumours, of which 36 were diagnosed and treated between January 1976 and December 1984, and the other 52 between January 1985 and December 1992 are analyzed. The percentage of accidental diagnoses shifted from 8% to 29%. Decreased number of tumours diagnosed by their metastasis, from 22% to 6%. Increased percentage of cases diagnosed in early stages P1-P2, from 23% to 46%.
