Abstract
Hypervascularity is a radiographic and pathologic hallmark of most solid tumors of the kidney. Angioinfarction targets the end product of altered angiogenesis pathways by eliminating the tumor's blood supply. Angioinfarction of renal tumors may be used to both the surgeon's and patient's advantage. Here we review the history, indications, techniques, and complications of angioinfarction in the management of primary renal tumors and their metastases.
