Abstract
Purpose of review
To review the current status of kidney tumor ablation in patients with substantial kidney impairment.
Recent findings
Few reports of kidney tumor ablation in such patients have recently been published. The reported prevalence of patients with stage 4 or 5 chronic kidney disease (CKD) among patients undergoing ablation is 2.0%–10%. In patients with stage 4 or 5 CKD, local tumor control rates were 88%–100%. The effect of ablation on CKD stage is unclear, and the observed deteriorations in kidney function are consistent with both the effect of cryoablation and the natural course of advanced CKD.
Summary
According to guidelines, active surveillance may be selected. The goals of treatment are complete tumor removal and maintenance of kidney function, both of which can be met by ablation. Given the limited treatment options, ablation may play a pivotal role in the management of patients with advanced CKD.
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.
