Abstract:
We show a big renal cell carcinoma case in an aged woman with many pathology associated. In view of the family refuse to make the radical surgery and the high surgical risk we decided to apply transarterial embolization treatment with polivinil alcohol particles (PVA). 28 months later the patient becames with no symptoms and with high quality life. We come to the conclusion that embolization is an effective therapeutic for the symptoms control in selectionated cases.
