We have reviewed the files of 145 patients who had presented with cancer of the renal parenchyma between March, 1985, and May, 1990. In 30.4% of cases, these cancers were discovered incidentally, ie. before the occurrence of any suggestive symptoms. In 66.7% of cases, the credit for this early detection was due to the ultrasound study prescribed by the attending physician within a general health assessment or the follow-up of some other disease. The early diagnosis allowed treating cancers at a less advanced stage, with a significant difference (p less than 0.05), which will probably improve their prognosis.
我们回顾了1985年3月至1990年5月期间145例肾实质癌患者的病历。在30.4%的病例中，这些癌症是偶然发现的，即在任何提示性症状出现之前。在66.7%的病例中，早期发现归功于主治医师在一般健康评估或其他疾病随访中安排的超声检查。早期诊断使得癌症能够在较早期阶段得到治疗，差异具有统计学意义（p小于0.05），这可能会改善其预后。
