Surgery seems to be the only effective treatment for bilateral kidney neoplasms as shown by the better survival rate of operated patients compared with those otherwise treated or untreated at all. The best conservative treatments, regarding radicality and security required by these neoplasms, are the enucleation and the partial in situ nephrectomy. Our study is based on 11 patients affected by bilateral kidney neoplasms; 8 of them, in which there were no signs of metastatization, have undergone surgical treatment. In 2 patients (18%) a bilateral enucleation was performed and in 6 (55%) monolateral enucleation together with a controlateral radical nephrectomy. All tumors developed simultaneously have been operated in the same session. No postoperative complications were observed except in 2 patients which developed a transient renal insufficiency. The follow up was from 2 to 66 months. All patients were examined with echotomography or CT scan at least once a year and are, up today, in good health condition and tumor free.
