title: [Transthoracic approach in surgery of the kidneys].
abstract: Under analysis were clinical observations of 37 patients who were subjected to transthoracal nephrectomy. Positive sides and advantages of transthoracal nephrectomies were noted. Preliminary embolization of the arterial bed of the kidney was shown to be not expedient in the surgical procedure in question. It is emphasized that in carcinoma of the kidney the above mentioned access is the access of choice. Wider introduction of the method into the every-day urological practice is recommended.
