📢 NEW from @JVIRmedia: Comparing Microwave Ablation (MWA) vs Cryoablation (CA) for small renal masses! A 12-year single-center study offers valuable insights. Let's break it down! 📊🔬 @SIRspecialists Study Details: • 279 small renal masses (≤ 4cm) in 257 patients • Median age: 71 years • CA: 191 cases; MWA: 88 cases • Evaluated: Adverse events, treatment effectiveness, survival rates 🔎 Key Results: • MWA: 100% technical success • CA: 1/191 needed retreatment • No significant impact on renal function post-treatment (CA: p=0.76, MWA: p=0.49) • No major differences in local recurrence, adverse events, or survival rates 📈🩺 In-Depth Analysis: • CA used for larger (p<0.01), more complex lesions (p=0.03) • Propensity score matching showed: 🔹 Similar local recurrence rates (p=0.39) 🔹 Comparable adverse event rates (p=0.20) 🔹 Equivalent cancer-free & overall survival (p=0.76, p=0.19) 🔍 📌 Conclusion: Both MWA & CA show high technical success and effective local disease control. Cancer-specific survival rates are similar. CA's higher adverse event rates may be due to treating larger lesions. Read the full study: doi.org/10.1016/j.jvir… A big thank you to the authors for their contribution @AmandaSmolockMD, @kantonIR, @DrRobertAdamo, & team! 🙏 How might these findings influence your approach to treating small renal masses?
