LINDA MACPHERSON LINDA, 49, from Thornliebank, Glasgow, had a radical nephrectomy on her right kidney in March.
The patient was a 73-year-old man with a history of emphysema and hypertension, seen at a tertiary care hospital in the Toronto area, 80 miles from the New York state border, for a laparoscopic right radical nephrectomy because of hypernephroma.
He agreed that Cross should have a radical nephrectomy because the lesion was larger titan tour centimeters.
