Abstract

Percutaneous CT-guided ablation of small renal masses (SRM) using moderate sedation is an alternative to surgery, particularly in elderly patients with multiple medical co-morbidities. In this patient population, minimizing the amount of sedation used, could make the ablation safer. This study was performed to compare the amount of sedation medications needed to perform CT-guided radiofrequency ablations (RFA) versus cryoablation of renal tumors.
