Zusammenfassung:Ten renal cell carcinoma (RCC) patients with bone metastatic lesions were treated in the Kyoto Prefectural University of Medicine between January, 1977, and December, 1992. Surgical treatment for the metastatic lesion was performed on 4 patients, while conservative treatment was performed on the other 6 patients. Surgical treatment made the patients painless consecutively, resulting in higher activities of daily life. However, recurrence of RCC developed in all the cases between 2 and 7 years later. Surgical treatment for the metastatic lesion was considered to be only a palliative therapy for RCC with bone metastasis and the indication should be limited to patients expected to have a good prognosis
