In the present study the prognostic value of tumor S-phase fraction was evaluated in 69 patients with renal-cell carcinoma. The proportion of S-phase cells was calculated from DNA histograms by flow cytometry in multiple samples from each tumor. The mean tumor S-phase percentage varied between 1.0 a
A 19-month-old black girl had a radical nephrectomy for a Wilms' tumor that contained areas of epithelium indistinguishable from renal cell carcinoma.
