title: [Pre-operative renal artery occlusion with a balloon catheter (author's transl)].
abstract: Renal artery occlusion with a balloon catheter introduced by the transfemoral route makes nephrectomy for tumour much easier. Advantages of vascular occlusion are a bloodless field and shrinking of the kidney with a significant reduction of blood loss during the operation. In addition, operative displacement of tumour thrombus is largely avoided.
