Abstract

14 year old patient suffering from a renal cell carcinoma was treated by surgery and irradiation. 1 1/1 years after diagnosis he developed multiple metastases in the brain, skin, bones, and in regional lymph nodes. Cyclophosphamid and vincristin did not reduce the metastases. The literature is reviewed with regard to symptoms, diagnostic procedures, therapy, and prognosis of hypernephrome in childhood.
