    Abstract:
    A 61-year-old female presented with gross hematuria and left flank pain. The arteriogram and CT scan revealed a large left renal tumor and multiple small right renal metastatic tumors. A chest X-ray and Ga scintigram showed no other metastatic lesions. A left radical nephrectomy and a right renal bench surgery were performed at the same time. The right multiple tumors were enucleated and the right kidney was autotransplanted into the right iliac fossa. The postoperative course was uneventful and the patient was free of tumor with good renal function. Renal preservation surgery was considered more beneficial for this patient than bilateral nephrectomy followed by hemodialysis.
