Abstract
The detection and the clinical and pathological findings of kidney tumors have much progressed over the last 15 years. The incidence of asymptomatic renal masses has increased up to 30% during this time. This is mostly due to advances in ultrasound and computed tomography imaging. So, the therapeutic management of these masses has also been significantly changed. A better knowledge of their clinical and anatomical features allowed a more efficient mutlidisplinary approach and a better assessment of their prognosis.
