Abstract
Renal cell carcinoma was detected in 5 patients with von Hippel-Lindau disease most accurately by magnification arteriography. At an operation aided by arteriography 80 to 100 per cent of the lesions, some measuring only a few millimeters, could be removed. The patients were followed by serial arteriography every 6 to 12 months to assess the size of remaining lesions and the development of new lesions. Re-exploration was considered if there was rapid growth or an increase in size of more than 1cm.
