title: [Palliative embolic treatment of synchronous bilateral renal carcinoma with metastasis].
abstract: The paper reports the use of embolic treatment in a case of synchronous bilateral renal carcinoma with caval thrombosis extending to the right atrium. Embolic treatment was also used for a large metastatic mass in the right iliac wing. The problems associated to palliative embolic treatment are discussed together with the relative histopathological aspects and the use of intrarterial IFN.
