Abstract: | Twenty-five patients suffering from nephroblastoma were investigated with a liver scan. The scan results were compared with surgical and pathological findings. This study suggests that different factors (i.e., primary tumor compression, local recurrence and effects of radiotherapy) may determine identical pathological patterns of the scan. Anamnestic information is very important for a correct diagnosis. |
