title: [Malignant kidney tumors in old age--postoperative complications and mortality].
abstract: Surgery was performed on 38 patients over 70 years of age with malignant renal tumours. The mortality rate (29%) and the incidence of postoperative complications (18%) were relatively high. Various means of preventing these complications, taking the factor of old age into particular consideration, are discussed in this paper.
