Abstract

The incidence of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) has more than doubled in the USA since 1975, accounting for more than 75,000 diagnoses per year. Concomitant with the rising incidence, thermal ablation is now considered an acceptable alternative to partial nephrectomy for all patients with cT1a small renal masses. The purpose of this study was to compare the safety and efficacy of microwave ablation (MWA) and cryoablation (CA) in the treatment of cT1a renal masses.
