Renal cell carcinoma: Pathological prognostic criteria

– Pathological criteria so far employed in the prognosis of renal cell carcinoma provide no clinically useful information. This paper emphasises the possibilities offered by histopathology today for tackling this clinical problem more effectively. Nuclear analysis, with objective and quantitative evaluation of the degree of distortion, may provide extremely useful information. The authors correctly classified 90% of the 50 cases of renal cell carcinoma considered and whose follow-up at 5 years was known.
