石塔と墓籍簿--実際の死者と記録される死者--両墓制・単墓制の概念を超えて (生老死と儀礼に関する通史的研究)

In our series, most patients who had nephrostomy insertion for ureteric obstruction due to malignancy had no further oncological treatment following insertion. Percutaneous nephrostomy is a procedure not without associated morbidity and does not always prolong survival. Due to the poor prognosis in cases of advanced malignancy, we advocate multi-disciplinary decision-making prior to nephrostomy insertion.
