title: [Small atlas for the diagnosis of retroperitoneal tumors].
abstract: The principal methods utilized in the diagnosis of retroperitoneal tumors are described herein. The interest that this area of the anatomy represents to the urologist is underscored. IVP should always be performed due to the important displacement which the urinary tract may undergo in the course of this disease. Knowledge of the existence of displacement can prevent inadvertent injury to the urinary tract which may warrant a nephrectomy.
