To determine the long-term survival of patients treated with percutaneous radiofrequency (RF) ablation for pathologically proven renal cell carcinoma (RCC).
In this single-center retrospective study, 100 patients with 125 RCCs (100 clear-cell, 19 papillary, and 6 chromophobe) 0.8-8 cm in size treated with RF ablation were evaluated at a single large tertiary-care center between 2004 and 2015. Technical success, primary and secondary technique efficacy, and pre- and postprocedural estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) at 3-6 months and 2-3 years were recorded. Overall survival, cancer-specific survival, and local tumor progression-free survival were calculated by Kaplan-Meier survival curves. Complications were classified per the Clavien-Dindo system. Statistical testing was done via χ tests for proportions and paired t test for changes in eGFR. Statistical significance was set at α = 0.05.
Overall technical success rate was 100%, and primary and secondary technique efficacy rates were 90% and 100%, respectively. Median follow-up was 62.8 months, ranging from 1 to 120 months. The 10-year overall, cancer-specific, and local progression-free survival rates were 32%, 86%, and 92%, respectively. The number of ablation probes used was predictive of residual unablated tumor (P < .001). There were no significant changes in preprocedure vs 2-3-years postprocedure eGFR (65.2 vs 62.1 mL/min/1.73 m; P = .443). There was a 9% overall incidence of complications, the majority of which were grade I.
Image-guided percutaneous RF ablation of RCCs is effective at achieving local control and preventing cancer-specific death within 10 years from initial treatment.
确定经皮射频(RF)消融治疗病理证实的肾细胞癌(RCC)患者的长期生存情况。
在这项单中心回顾性研究中,我们在 2004 年至 2015 年间,在一家大型三级保健中心评估了 100 例 125 个 RCC(100 个透明细胞癌、19 个乳头状癌和 6 个嫌色细胞癌)患者的情况,这些患者的肿瘤大小为 0.8-8cm,接受了 RF 消融治疗。记录技术成功率、原发和继发技术疗效以及术前和术后 3-6 个月和 2-3 年内估算肾小球滤过率(eGFR)。通过 Kaplan-Meier 生存曲线计算总生存率、癌症特异性生存率和局部肿瘤无进展生存率。并发症按 Clavien-Dindo 系统分类。通过 χ 检验进行比例检验,通过配对 t 检验进行 eGFR 变化的统计检验。统计学意义设为 α = 0.05。
总体技术成功率为 100%,原发和继发技术疗效率分别为 90%和 100%。中位随访时间为 62.8 个月,范围为 1 至 120 个月。10 年总生存率、癌症特异性生存率和局部无进展生存率分别为 32%、86%和 92%。消融探针的使用数量与残留未消融肿瘤有关(P<0.001)。术前与术后 2-3 年 eGFR 无显著变化(65.2 与 62.1 mL/min/1.73 m;P=0.443)。总的并发症发生率为 9%,大多数为 1 级。
经皮影像引导 RF 消融治疗 RCC 可有效实现局部控制,并在初始治疗后 10 年内预防癌症特异性死亡。
