Perkutane bildgeführte Radiofrequenzablation von Nierentumoren

Accepted indications for RFA are T1 renal tumors in patients with advanced age, significant comorbidities, reduced renal function, single kidney, and/or no wish for operation. Predictors for the success include tumor size and location as well as operator experience. To define the real efficacy of RFA in the treatment of renal tumors, randomized cont… Show more
