title: [Hypernephroma in a pelvic kidney. Diagnostic problems during angiography (author's transl)].
abstract: A hypernephroma in a pelvic kidney of a 54-year-old patient is described, which could not be demonstrated angiographically. This is explained by marked compression of the kidney because of the limited available space and the pressure of the surrounding organs. There was also histological proof of advanced intimal fibrosis in the artery and extensive obstruction of the vein by tumour, leading to diminished circulation of blood. The extreme rarity of hypernephromas in pelvic kidneys is stressed; this is barely mentioned in the literature.
