Excerpt from Renal Growths: Their Pathology, Diagnosis, and Treatment Very considerable uncertainty and confusion still exists in our knowledge of renal growths. Their pathology is, by general admission, very obscure. Large numbers of individual cases are on record, and yet there is little or no general agreement as to their nature. The origin, character, and relationship of neo plasms of the kidney have up to quite recent years [received but scant attention. The subject, however, is rapidly becoming one of pressing importance, The majority of renal growths are now allowed to run their malignant course unopposed, for surgical interference has hitherto met with very indifferent success. A scientific basis for our practice is urgently demanded. Clinical progress halts for an advance in pathology. The indiscriminate removal of renal growths is neither reasonable nor reassuring. As Bland Sutton well says: It is particularly necessary to subject these tumours to a rigid analysis, clinical and patho logical, for the purpose of discovering which may be removed with the best hope of prolonging life, and to obtain, if possible, evidence which will enable us to diagnose, with a reasonable amount of confidence, the nature of the tumour from the physical signs. Keener scrutiny of details, as revealed by microscopical research, may well be expected to lead to more precise clinical differentiation.
