  • Title: [Primary retroperitoneal tumors--course, diagnosis and treatment results].
    Author: Budziński G, Kuśmierski S, Oczkowicz G, Król R.
    Journal: Wiad Lek; 1997; 50 Suppl 1 Pt 1():155-8. PubMed ID: 9446344.
    Abstract:
    36 patients with primary retroperitoneal tumors (PRT) were studied. In 15 cases (41.7%) tumours were found incidentally. Ultrasound examination seems to be the golden standard for finding asymptomatic retroperitoneal neoplasms. High percentage of malignancy (72.2%-26 cases), mesenchymal texture of tumors and late detection of the disease caused by its occult clinical course are the frequent reasons of inoperability (11 patients-30.5%).
