title: [Renal cancer and hereditary diseases].
abstract: Renal tumors associated with hereditary diseases are a rare entity characterized by many renal tumors and other manifestations such as pulmonary, neurological and dermatological expressions. The management requires a close collaboration between surgical specialties and geneticists. Precocious, bilateral and/or multifocal tumors call to mind a hereditary disease. Early diagnosis and screening are essential to optimize a strict observation and a most conservative treatment.
