Abstract
Purpose of review: There is increasing incidence of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) with multiple treatment options currently available. The purpose of this review is to outline patient selection and technical approaches and present the current literature for percutaneous ablation of T1b (4.1-7 cm) RCC.
Recent findings: An increasing number of retrospective studies and meta-analyses have evaluated the use of percutaneous ablation for T1b RCC. Overall, these studies tend to show that percutaneous ablation in this patient population is feasible. However, rates of major adverse events and local recurrence after percutaneous ablation for T1b RCC are both higher than when ablation is used for smaller tumors. As such, a multi-disciplinary, patient-centered approach is required. Due to the increasing literature in this area, the most recent National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) guidelines include percutaneous ablation as an option for non-surgical patients with T1b RCC.
期刊介绍：
This journal aims to review the most important, recently published clinical findings in the field of oncology. By providing clear, insightful, balanced contributions by international experts, the journal intends to serve all those involved in the care of those affected by cancer.
We accomplish this aim by appointing international authorities to serve as Section Editors in key subject areas, such as cancer prevention, leukemia, melanoma, neuro-oncology, and palliative medicine. Section Editors, in turn, select topics for which leading experts contribute comprehensive review articles that emphasize new developments and recently published papers of major importance, highlighted by annotated reference lists. An international Editorial Board reviews the annual table of contents, suggests articles of special interest to their country/region, and ensures that topics are current and include emerging research. Commentaries from well-known figures in the field are also provided.
