摘要
Development of cross-sectional imaging has led to a significant increase in diagnosis of small renal tumors. Nephron-sparing surgery has proven to be effective in the management of these small tumors. Could radiofrequency ablation be as effective in the management of these patients, after showing promising results in a selected group of patients? In this article we discuss the principles of radiofrequency ablation and present results in a selected group of patients. We also outline future perspectives of this noninvasive technique.
