Popis: | The case of a 54-year-old woman is presented. She underwent right sided unilateral nephrectomy for metastatic bilateral renal tumour of the Bellini collecting ducts. Progression of the contralateral tumour resulted in acute complete anuric renal failure. Haemodialysis was started along with palliative gemcitabine (1000 mg/m(2))-cisplatine (70 mg/m(2)) chemotherapy. In parallel, renal function was improving and dialysis could be stopped at the end of the chemotherapy line comprising 6 cycles. Half a year later the patient was lost of uncontrolled local and pulmonary progression. The potentially nephrotoxic cisplatine chemotherapy associated to complex supportive treatment improved the renal function by controlling diffusely infiltrative tumour growth and allowed a survival benefit over one year with active household keeping capacity. |
