I had R. nephrectomy left kidney for RCC, clear cell, 7 cm, pT3aNOMO in Aug.008. PET-CT in April 009 showed two sub-cm nodules in lungs. PET-CT in Sep. 009 showed two additional nodules in lungs in addition to a slight enlargement of the largest shb-cm. nodule. Started sutent since Oct. 009. Nodules stable in CT scans including the last one in July 010. Now, my question is what should I do at this stage of the disease? I would be glad to visit the RGCI in the first week of December for the assessment of the disease and plan for future strategy on the control of this disease. Thanks. Gautam Sakya, 70 years, male
Hello, Since your lung nodules are stable after chemoradiothetapy, possibility of benign lung nodules is more likely. Better to get done regular follow up with CT thorax to see any change in nodule size and appearance. If nodule remains stable over years, nothing to be done. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.  Take care
