Evaluation and treatment of incidental renal masses is a problem facing urologists with increasing frequency since radiologic imaging (Echotomography and CT) has become routine. Traditional treatment by total nephrectomy may be unnecessary for small renal cell carcinoma and is often inappropriate for benign, lesions: whereas only observation by periodic follow-up with imaging studies and/or percutaneous biopsy is not always sufficient. So the problem of management alternatives is very important and no universal strategy can be employed. We report our experience with 15 pts with incidental renal mass treated in different ways.
