Multiple modalities exist for the management of small renal tumors, including active surveillance, extirpation (radical nephrectomy and partial nephrectomy), and ablative therapies. Radiofrequency ablation (RFA) is an alternative to extirpative surgery for renal tumors. This article presents the current literature on RFA for renal tumors. We reviewed 28 RFA series in the English literature from 2003 to 2010 to assess patient selection, biopsy, renal outcomes, and oncologic outcomes.
多种方法可用于治疗小的肾肿瘤,包括主动监测、切除(根治性肾切除术和部分肾切除术)和消融治疗。射频消融(RFA)是肾肿瘤切除术的替代方法。本文介绍了关于 RFA 治疗肾肿瘤的现有文献。我们回顾了 2003 年至 2010 年英语文献中的 28 项 RFA 系列研究,以评估患者选择、活检、肾结果和肿瘤学结果。
