We have proved that the most marked correlation was between the background pathologies and papillary adenoma (n = 29). More common the diameter of fibrosis was several times larger than the size of adenoma. There was also strong correlation with cystic changes of renal tubules. There is a correlation R = 0.305 (p = 0.01) between the frequency of papillary adenoma findings and of nephrosclerosis stages.
