[An occurrence of a neurogenic sarcoma in an irradiated field following the combined surgical-radiologic treatment of a childhood adenosarcoma of the kidney].

Abstract

Malignant neoplasias in childhood generally are an increased risk for the patient to fall ill with a second tumor. Second tumors in former irradiation field are seldom, but are acknowledged radiogenically if histology is different to that of the first tumor and a sufficiently long period is between the two tumors. A patient is represented who had been operated and irradiated because of an adenosarcoma of the kidney at the age of seven and who has fallen ill with a neurogenic sarcoma in irradiation area more than 30 years later. The same patient had to suffer from radiogenic retardation during differentiation of lumbar apparatus of attitude and locomotion and on the other hand he became father of a healthy daughter at the age of 32.
