The authors report their experience about 21 cases of retroperitoneal tumors. They emphasise their often late revelation, the frequent malignity and the involvement of the surroundings organs. They insist on the interest of the opacification of urinary tract and angiography and the value of echo-ranging and total body scanner to evaluate the characteristics of these tumors and theirs extensions. Recurrents are frequents and must be operated each time necessary.
