الوصف: | What's known on the subject? and What does the study add? Given that percutaneous cryoablation (PCA) is a relatively new procedure, there are few studies published on this treatment with almost no long-term follow-up. The percutaneous approach, while not the first choice treatment for RCC, may be most appropriate for older patients with several comorbidities as it offers less invasive outpatient management of small renal masses (SRMs). It is therefore important to measure procedural outcomes noting rates of complications and reasons for treatment failure or recurrence. To our knowledge, this is the first paper applying the R.E.N.A.L nephrometry scoring system to PCA of SRMs. The study adds insight into procedural outcomes from this treatment. Little has been published on this treatment strategy, but it has been increasingly considered for patients who are not candidates for traditional surgical approach. It is important to study and establish the outcomes of all treatments used by physicians. It is also necessary to understand treatment complications how and why they occur and seek reasons for treatment failure and recurrence. This allows physicians to choose the best management for each individual patient to improve outcomes. OBJECTIVE center dot To investigate the value of the R.E.N.A.L nephrometry scoring system in predicting treatment success for image-guided percutaneous cryoablation (PCA). PATIENTS AND METHODS center dot The study included 139 patients with renal masses treated with PCA. center dot Preoperative computed tomography or magnetic resonance images were reviewed by a urology resident. center dot The primary endpoint variable was incomplete treatment or tumour recurrence. center dot R.E.N.A.L. scores were categorized into low (46), moderate (79), and high (1012). center dot Logistic regression analysis was conducted to predict tumour recurrence. Additional variables collected included age at surgery, American Society of Anesthesiologists score, lesion size, skin-to-tumour distance, skin-to-hilum ... |
