  • Title: [The indications for lymphography in urology with special reference to carcinoma of the penis (author's transl)].
    Author: Gregl A, Heitmann D.
    Journal: Rofo; 1977 Apr; 126(4):339-44. PubMed ID: 140126.
    Abstract:
    Lymphograms have been performed on 775 urological patients. Our experience indicates a scheme for lymphography in this particular speciality. According to this, carcinomas of the bladder and kidney are a relative indication for lymphography, whereas carcinomas of the scrotum, penis and prostate present an absolute indication. Fiftyseven lymphograms have been performed on 52 patients with carcinoma of the penis. In one patient the examination was carried out twice in one year, in another, three times and a third patient had three lymphograms over a period of six years. Most patients were aged 60 to 69 years, average age 61.48 years. Agreement between the histological and lymphographic findings was observed in 26 out of 34 patients treated surgically (76.5%).
