    Author: Marberger M, Georgi M.
    Journal: J Urol; 1975 Sep; 114(3):360-3. PubMed ID: 1142514.
    Abstract:
    A method of preoperative intraluminal occlusion of the renal artery in cases of kidney tumors using a 5F Swan-Ganz ballon catheter is presented. The procedure was used in 26 tumor nephrectomies without complications and resulted in marked facilitation of the operation in 70 per cent of the cases.
