Intermediate oncological outcomes of percutaneous radiofrequency ablation for small renal tumors: initial experience.
BACKGROUND For T1 stage incidental renal cell carcinoma (RCC), partial nephrectomy with or without laparoscopy is widely used on the basis of its nephron- sparing and minimally invasive nature. However, high-risk patients of advanced age, or with cardiovascular events are not often suitable candidates for surgery under general anesthesia. Percutaneous radiofrequency ablation (RFA) for mainly th...
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 Cell Carcinoma
Background: Preliminary data regarding the use of percutaneous radiofrequency ablation (RFA) for the treatment of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) are encouraging, and show the technique to be associated with minimal morbidity. Thus, the current study was designed to evaluate the clinical applications, treatment efficacy, and complications of percutaneous RFA in RCC. Methods: From February 2003 to Fe...
متن کاملImage-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 کاملthe role of choice-lock catheter and trocar technique in percutaneous ablation of symptomatic renal cysts
conclusions percutaneous ethanol sclerotheraphy in simple cysts is a safe, cost-effective and minimally invasive method. we consider that this technique may be an alternative solution in the percutaneous cyst treatment. results fifty-seven cysts had complete regression, while 31 cysts regressed partially. after the procedure, pain was relieved in 44 (82%) patients and the pain alleviated in fou...
