    • Abstract:
      We analyzed the chief complaints of patients with four major urogenital malignancies (renal cancer, renal pelvis and ureter cancer, bladder cancer and prostatic cancer) over the past decade (1990-1999) at the Jikei University Hospital. Over the last 10 years, a high percentage of renal cancers were detected incidentally. By contrast, prostatic cancers were more likely (10.5%) than other cancers to be detected on the basis of symptoms of metastasis. However, since 1995 more prostatic cancers are being detected with prostatic-specific antigen screening at the health checkups. Gross hematuria is the chief complaint of most patients with uroepithelial cancers (cancers of the renal pelvis, ureter and bladder cancer). Additionally, renal pelvis and ureter cancers were diagnosed with screening in a few patients in the past five years.
