Abstract
- Before nephrectomy three patients with hypernephroma underwent occlusion of the renal arteries with Gelform via selective catheterization. This technique facilitated nephrectomy, decreased blood loss and prevented the dissemination of tumor cells or septic emboli from organ manipulation. Reduction of the vascular bed of the tumors shortened operative time and simplified the procedure. We report three cases with review of literature.
