[Place of partial nephrectomy in surgery of tumors of the kidney].
Partial nephrectomy for a small renal tumor is usually technically possible, especially in the case of polar tumors, but it does not ensure the same degree of therapeutic safety as radical nephrectomy. At the present time, it is preferable to restrict this technique to tumors in a solitary kidney, when possible, and to benign tumors and tumors less than 3 cm in subjects over the age of 50 years, when the contralateral kidney is healthy.
