Image-Guided Percutaneous Ablation of Renal Tumors
Renal tumors account for more than 50,000 new cases annually in the United States with a rising incidence (Chow et al., 1999). This is mainly because of an increase in diagnosis due to widespread use of cross-sectional imaging (Pantuck et al., 2001). Renal cell carcinoma constitutes 4% of all adult malignancies (American Cancer Society, 2008) and about 70 to 80 percent of patients presenting wi...
متن کاملRadiofrequency ablation of adrenal tumors and adrenocortical carcinoma metastases.
BACKGROUND The current study was performed to analyze the feasibility, safety, imaging appearance, and short-term efficacy of image-guided percutaneous radiofrequency ablation (RFA) of primary and metastatic adrenal neoplasms including adrenocortical carcinoma. METHODS The procedure was performed using 36 treatment spheres on 15 adrenocortical carcinoma primary or metastatic tumors in eight p...
متن کاملPercutaneous Radiofrequency Ablation of Renal Tumors: A Single-Center Experience
PURPOSE To evaluate the oncological outcomes, complications, and changes in renal function in patients treated with computed tomography-guided percutaneous radiofrequency ablation (RFA) for small renal tumors. MATERIALS AND METHODS The charts of patients who underwent RFA from 2006 to 2011 at a single institution were reviewed. Oncological and functional outcomes were assessed. Statistical an...
متن کاملPercutaneous radio frequency ablation of small renal tumors: initial results.
PURPOSE Thermal tissue ablation with radio frequency energy is an experimental treatment of renal tumor. We report early results of an ongoing trial of percutaneous radio frequency ablation for small renal tumors. MATERIALS AND METHODS Patients with percutaneously accessible renal tumors were evaluated for radio frequency ablation. Tumors were solid on computerized tomography (CT), 3 cm. or l...
متن کاملPercutaneous radiofrequency ablation of renal tumors in solitary kidney patients.
OBJECTIVES In solitary kidney patients with renal cell carcinoma (RCC), radiofrequency ablation (RFA) could be effective in achieving complete tumor necrosis without increasing the risk of complications or renal failure. To analyze the outcomes of a group of solitary kidney patients treated for RCC by RFA considering tumor size and location, renal function involvement and complications. METHO...
