THE CORRELATION OF COMPUTERIZED TOMOGRAPHY STAGING AND PATHOLOGICAL STAGE İN KIDNEYTUMORS

Abstract

Renal adenocarcinoma is the most common primary kidney tumor in adults. Clinically accurate staging of the tumor is important because the type of surgical approach is related with the extension of the tumor. The aim of the study was to determine the accuracy of clinical staging in kidney tumors with computerized tomography (CT). 44 patients operated renal mass in our clinic, were evaluated retrospectively. Clinical and pathological stages were compared. Clinically, 34 of 44 patients were stage I, 5 patients were stage II and 5 patients were stage III. 3 out of 4 patients who were classified as stage I with CT were staged as stage II and the remaining one was stage III pathologically. One of the 5 patients who were clinically stage II was staged as III pathologically. Staging accuracy of CT in stage I, stage II and stage III patients is 88.2%, 80% and 100% respectively. However the number of patients with stage II and stage III is not enough for reliable evaluation. Overall staging accuracy with CT is found to be 88.6%. İn conclusion, CT is a reliable method in staging of renal celi carcinoma and the difference between clinical and pathological stages is not significant.
