Transcatheter embolization of genitourinary pathology has enjoyed widespread acceptance over the past several years. In many centers, preoperative embolization of hypervascular renal-cell carcinomas has become a routine practice and, in patients deemed unresectable, may be used as a primary form of therapy. The authors present the indications for embolization and discuss relevant technical points.
