title: [Paraneoplastic syndromes in cancer of the kidney (author's transl)].
abstract: Starting with the description of their own observations of paraneoplastic syndromes in adult patients with cancer of the kidneys, the authors discuss the possible pathogenetic mechanisms and the more characteristic clinical features of said syndrome. They conclude by advocating a systematic search for such paraneoplastic syndromes as an aid to early diagnosis of renal malignancy and also as a working parameter for assessing the evolution of the tumor and the effectiveness of treatment.
