Abstract
Simultaneous bilateral renal cell carcinoma has been treated in 5 patients at our hospital during the last 6 years. Improvements in radiologic diagnostic techniques are responsible for the increased detection of these lesions. Results of surgical management are reported. Angiographic embolization of renal cell carcinoma has proved to be a useful method to manage patients with solitary kidneys or those with severe medical problems contraindicating an operation, and our results with this approach are described.
