Abstract

This chapter will not discuss the treatment of benign renal tumours, which are principally cystic lesions, and when they are unilateral, require only surgery.

This study was supported by the “Institut National de la Santé et de la Recherche Médicale” (INSERM) contract number 714413, A.T. number 1, and the Institut Gustave-Roussy, contract for clinical research F.C. 72 A 6.
