Nierenbecken- und Harnleiterkarzinom

  • Chapter
Uroonkologie

Zusammenfassung

Etwa 10% der Tumoren des Harntraktes sind Nierenbecken- und Harnleitertumoren (Johansson u. Wahlqvist 1974; Skeet 1976). Mehr als 90% der bösartigen Tumoren sind Übergangszellkarzinome und entsprechen in ihrem Aufbau jenen Tumoren, die in der Blase anzutreffen sind (Almgaard et al. 1973; Batata et al. 1975; Bloom et al. 1970; Culp 1955; Das et al. 1990; Dufuour 1970; Fraley 1978). Das Verhältnis beträgt 1:1–3:20–60 (Nierenbecken: Harnleiter: Blase) (Chasko et al. 1981; McCredie et al. 1982). Nierenbecken- und Harnleitertumoren weisen spezifische Merkmale auf, die teilweise eine getrennte Betrachtung notwendig machen.
