title: [Results of organ preserving treatment of T1,2 kidney tumors].
abstract: The results of organ-saving surgery performed for kidney tumor T1.2N0M0 in 21 patients are presented. The renal pole or a tumor-bearing sector of the parenchyma of the kidney was resected in all cases. Metastases developed in the retroperitoneal lymph nodes 6-9 months after pole resection in 2 cases of pT2N0M0 tumor in whom no lymphadenoctomy had been carried out. The remaining 19 patients have survived 6-48 months without any signs of recurrence or metastasis. Organ-saving surgery for kidney tumor T1N0M0 should be considered justified provided lymphadenectomy is performed.
