RESUMO

AIMS: Perinephric fat invasion (PFI) is a key component of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) staging, but there are limited data pertaining to biopsy tract seeding (BTS) resulting in perirenal tissue involvement [BTS with perinephric fat invasion (BTS-P)].The aim is to correlate clinical outcomes with pathologic stage to determine whether the presence of BTS-P should be considered a criterion to stage RCC as part of the pT3a category in the absence of any other upstaging variables. MATERIALS AND RESULTS: We identified 304 renal biopsies from patients with subsequent nephrectomies for RCC; 33 of the tumours contained PFI. Each case was reviewed to determine the presence of BTS-P and other forms of invasion [e.g. non-BTS-P PFI, sinus fat invasion (SFI), and/or renal vein invasion (RVI)], and these findings were compared with survival outcomes. Ten (30%) of 33 tumours with PFI showed BTS-P as the only finding, and were otherwise pT1 tumours; six (60%) patients were alive without disease (AWOD) (mean, 77.5 months), three were lost to follow-up (LTF), and one died of other disease (DOOD). Two patients showed true PFI plus BTS-P; one was LTF and one is AWOD at 107 months. Ten (43%) of 23 patients with tumours with true invasion (PFI ± SFI and/or RVI) are AWOD (mean, 97.7 months), eight (35%) died of disease (DOD), four were LTF, and one DOOD. Kaplan-Meier survival curves showed that the cancer-specific survival was significantly worse in patients with true invasion (P = 0.044) than in those with BTS-P as the sole finding. CONCLUSION: Patients with tumours showing BTS-P only appear to have better outcomes than those with other non-PFI invasion, suggesting that this finding should not be upstaged to pT3a. Additional studies are needed to corroborate the significance of our observations.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: To identify a patient cohort who received ≥ 100 mSv during a single computed tomography (CT)-guided intervention and analyze clinical information. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Using the dose-tracking platform Radimetrics that collects data from all CT scanners in a single hospital, a patient-level search was performed retrospectively by setting a threshold effective dose (E) of 100 mSv for the period from January 2013 to December 2017. Patients who received ≥ 100 mSv in a single day during a single CT-guided intervention were then identified. Procedure types were identified, and medical records were reviewed up to January 2020 to identify patients who developed short- and/or medium-term (up to 8 years) medical consequences. RESULTS: Of 8952 patients with 100 mSv+, there were 33 patients who underwent 37 CT-guided interventions each resulting in ≥ 100 mSv. Procedures included ablations (15), myelograms (8), drainages (7), biopsies (6), and other (1). The dose for individual procedures was 100.2 to 235.5 mSv with mean and median of 125.7 mSv and 111.8 mSv, respectively. Six patients (18 %) were less than 50 years of age. During the study period of 0.2 to 7 years, there were no deterministic or stochastic consequences identified in this study cohort. CONCLUSIONS: While infrequent, CT-guided interventions may result in a single procedure dose of ≥ 100 mSv. Awareness of the possibility of such high doses and potential for long-term deleterious effects, especially in younger patients, and consideration of alternative imaging guidance and/or further dose optimization should be strongly considered whenever feasible. KEY POINTS: • Although not so frequent, CT-guided interventions may result in a single procedure dose of ≥ 100 mSv • Procedures with potential for high dose includes ablations, myelograms, drainages, and biopsies.

RESUMO

This report evaluates the techniques and complications of microwave ablation of cystic renal cell carcinoma. Five patients with cystic renal cell carcinoma were treated with microwave ablation between October 2015 and June 2020. Medical records were reviewed to evaluate technique and complications. Technical success and primary technique efficacy both were 100%. There were no complications. Mean follow-up time was 18 months (range, 6-36 months). No local recurrence was identified during the follow-up period. Renal function remained stable at 1 month and the last follow-up. Percutaneous microwave ablation is promising for the nonsurgical management of cystic renal cell carcinoma.

RESUMO

PURPOSE: To determine effect of body mass index (BMI) on safety and cancer-related outcomes of thermal ablation for renal cell carcinoma (RRC). MATERIALS AND METHODS: This retrospective study evaluated 427 patients (287 men and 140 women; mean [SD] age, 72 [12] y) who were treated with thermal ablation for RCC between October 2006 and December 2017. Patients were stratified by BMI into 3 categories: normal weight (18.5-24.9 kg/m2), overweight (25-29.9 kg/m2), and obese (≥ 30 kg/m2). Of 427 patients, 71 (16%) were normal weight, 157 (37%) were overweight, and 199 (47%) were obese. Complication rates, local recurrence, and residual disease were compared in the 3 cohorts. RESULTS: No differences in technical success between normal-weight, overweight, and obese patients were identified (P = .72). Primary technique efficacy rates for normal-weight, overweight, and obese patients were 91%, 94%, and 93% (P = .71). There was no significant difference in RCC specific-free survival, disease-free survival, and metastasis-free survival between obese, overweight, and normal-weight groups (P = .72, P = .43, P = .99). Complication rates between the 3 cohorts were similar (normal weight 4%, overweight 2%, obese 3%; P = .71). CONCLUSIONS: CT-guided renal ablation is safe, feasible, and effective regardless of BMI.

RESUMO

PURPOSE: To describe interventional oncology therapies combined with immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) therapy targeting the programmed death 1 pathway in patients with different neoplasms. MATERIALS AND METHODS: This was a retrospective cohort study of patients who underwent tumor-directed thermal ablation, embolization, or selective internal radiation therapy (SIRT) between January 1, 2011, and May 1, 2019, and received anti-programmed death 1/PD-L1 agents ≤ 90 days before or ≤ 30 days after the interventional procedure. Immune-related adverse events (irAEs) and procedural complications ≤ 90 days after the procedure were graded according to the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events version 5.0. The study included 65 eligible patients (49% female; age 63 years ± 11.1). The most common tumors were metastatic melanoma (n = 28) and non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) (n = 12). Patients underwent 78 procedures (12 patients underwent > 1 procedure), most frequently SIRT (35.9%) and cryoablation (28.2%). The most common target organs were liver (46.2%), bone (24.4%), and lung (9.0%). Most patients received ICI monotherapy with pembrolizumab (n = 30), nivolumab (n = 22), and atezolizumab (n = 6); 7 patients received ipilimumab and nivolumab. RESULTS: Seven (10.8%) patients experienced an irAE (71.4% grade 1-2), mostly affecting the skin. Median time to irAE was 33 days (interquartile range, 19-38 days). Five irAEs occurred in patients with melanoma, and no irAEs occurred in patients with NSCLC. Management required corticosteroids (n = 3) and immunotherapy discontinuation (n = 1); all irAEs resolved to grade ≤ 1. There were 4 intraprocedural and 32 postprocedural complications (77.8% grade < 3). No grade 5 irAEs and/or procedural complications occurred. CONCLUSIONS: No unmanageable or unanticipated toxicities occurred within 90 days after interventional oncology therapies combined with ICIs.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE. The purpose of this study was to assess the safety, technical results, and clinical outcomes of CT-guided percutaneous microwave ablation of category T1a renal cell carcinoma. MATERIALS AND METHODS. This retrospective study investigated consecutive patients who underwent CT-guided microwave ablation for T1a renal cell carcinoma from October 2015 to May 2019. Patient demographics including tumor characteristics, comorbidities, technical details, and clinical outcomes were evaluated. Local progression-free survival and overall survival rates were estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method. RESULTS. One hundred-six patients including 70 men (mean age, 68.5 ± 8.9 [SD] years; range, 49-86 years) and 36 women (mean age, 69.5 ± 10.0 years; range, 50-88 years) with an overall mean age of 68.8 ± 9.2 years (range, 49-88 years) with 119 T1a renal cell carcinomas were treated with CT-guided microwave ablation. Technical success was achieved for 100% of the tumors. Complete response was achieved in 101 (95.3%) patients and partial response was achieved in five (4.7%) patients. Local progression-free survival was 100.0%, 92.8%, and 90.6% at 1, 2, and 3 years, respectively. Overall survival was 99.0%, 97.7%, and 94.6% at 1, 2, and 3 years, respectively. Six patients (5.7%) had seven complications (five with Clavien-Dindo Grade I, Society of Interventional Radiology [SIR] category A, two with Clavien-Dindo Grade III, SIR category B) within 30 days of the procedure. CONCLUSION. CT-guided percutaneous microwave ablation is associated with high rates of technical success, excellent local progression-free survival and overall survival, and a low complication rate for category T1a renal cell carcinoma.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND. Obesity is a worldwide problem that impacts patient health as well as the morbidity associated with surgical procedures. Thus, patients with morbid obesity may not be suitable candidates for curative surgery. For this patient population, thermal ablation may be an effective alternative to nephrectomy. OBJECTIVE. The purpose of this study was to determine the feasibility, oncologic outcomes, and survival of patients with morbid obesity and renal cell carcinoma treated with thermal ablation. MATERIALS AND METHODS. A retrospective analysis was performed of 107 patients treated with CT-guided renal ablation for clinical T1 renal cell carcinoma between February 2005 and December 2017. Patients were stratified into two cohorts on body mass index of ≥ 40 kg/m2 (morbidly obese) and body mass index (weight in kilograms divided by the square of height in meters) of ≥ 40 (morbidly obese) and 18.5-24.9 (normal weight). Anesthetic and radiation dosages, procedure time, residual disease, and local recurrence, and adverse events were analyzed between the two groups. Kaplan-Meier statistics were used to evaluate cancer-related outcomes for each group. RESULTS. Thirty-four patients were morbidly obese, and 73 patients had normal weight. Morbid obesity was associated with longer procedural duration (p = .001), sedative doses (p = .002) and radiation exposure (p = .001) than normal weight. Hematomas were more prevalent in patients with morbid obesity than in those of normal weight (p = .01), but treatment efficacy and local recurrences were comparable with those for normal-weight individuals (p = .81 and p = .12, respectively). Cancer-related outcomes were equivalent between the two groups based on 5 years of imaging observation data. CONCLUSION. CT-guided thermal ablation remains technically feasible, well-tolerated, and effective in patients with morbid obesity and renal cell carcinoma, with the caveat of increased risk of perinephric hematoma, anesthesia dose, and radiation exposure. CLINICAL IMPACT. CT-guided thermal ablation can be considered a safe and effective treatment for renal cell carcinoma in patients with morbid obesity.

RESUMO

PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Ablation techniques are now well-established treatment options available for the management of primary and secondary hepatic malignancies. Currently available ablative techniques include radiofrequency ablation (RFA), microwave ablation (MWA), cryoablation, and irreversible electroporation (IRE). Along with advances in navigational devices and targeting technologies, ablation combined with other therapies may be the next therapeutic option in thermal ablation. The purpose of this review is to evaluate the current status of ablative technologies in interventional and medical oncology for management of liver malignancies. RECENT FINDINGS: With the use of combination techniques (i.e., ablation and transarterial embolization procedures), thermal ablation is now moving toward treating tumors larger than 3 cm in size or tumors with macrovascular invasion. Ongoing trials are examining the optimum timing of combination therapies. Thermal ablation combined with hepatic resection may increase the number of patients with metastatic colorectal carcinoma to the liver who qualify for curative surgery. Combination therapies of thermal ablation and transarterial embolization allow for promising treatment responses for larger HCC. Surgery combined with thermal ablation can potentially increase the number of patients with metastatic colon cancer to the liver who qualify for curative surgery.

RESUMO

PURPOSE: To compare the therapeutic and renal function outcomes of radiofrequency (RF) ablation, cryoablation, and microwave (MW) ablation for treatment of T1a renal cell carcinoma (RCC). MATERIALS AND METHODS: A retrospective assessment of 297 patients (mean age 72 years range 24-90 years) with biopsy-proven RCC treated with image-guided percutaneous thermal ablation was performed between October 2006 and December 2016. Mean tumor size was 2.4 cm; mean radius, exophytic/endophytic properties, nearness of tumor to collecting system or sinus, anterior/posterior, hilar tumor touching the main renal artery or vein, and location relative to polar lines; Preoperative Aspects and Dimensions Used for an Anatomical; and c-centrality scores were 6.0, 7.0, and 2.8, respectively. Assessments of adverse events, treatment efficacy, and therapeutic outcomes were performed among RF ablation, cryoablation, and MW ablation. The 2-year disease-free, metastatic-free, and cancer-specific survival rates were tabulated. Estimated glomerular filtration rate was used to assess for treatment related changes in renal function. RESULTS: A total of 297 T1aN0M0 biopsy-proven RCCs measuring 1.2-3.9 cm were treated with computed tomography-guided RF ablation (n = 244, 82%), cryoablation (n = 26, 9%), and MW ablation (n = 27, 9%). There were no significant differences in patient demographics among the 3 groups (P = .09). Technical success rates were similar among the 3 treatments (P = .33). Primary efficacy at 1 month postablation was more likely to be achieved with RF ablation and MW ablation than with cryoablation. At 2 years' follow-up, there was no local recurrence, metastatic progression, or RCC-related death observed in the 3 groups. There was no significant change in estimated glomerular filtration rate among the 3 ablation groups compared with baseline at 2-year follow-up (P = .71). CONCLUSION: RF ablation, cryoablation, and MW ablation are equivalent at 2 years for treatment of T1a RCC for therapeutic outcome, stability of renal function, and low adverse event rate.

RESUMO

PURPOSE: To evaluate imaging-related hemorrhagic risk factors for ultrasound (US)-guided native kidney biopsy. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A retrospective review was conducted of adult patients who underwent US-guided native kidney biopsy at a single center between January 2006 and March 2016 and identified 37 of 551 patients (6.72%) with postbiopsy bleeding complications, including 11 major complications (2.00%; n = 11) and 26 minor complications (4.72%; n = 26). Ten patients with major complications and 20 with minor complications were matched with 20 control subjects each by propensity score matching based on age, needle size, number of cores, blood pressure, partial thromboplastin time, prothrombin time, platelet count, and estimated glomerular filtration rate. RESULTS: Biopsy needle passing through the renal sinus was identified in the patients with major (6 of 10; 60%) and minor complications (8 of 20; 40.0%) but not in the control groups. For patients with major complications, the needle-sinus distance was significantly shorter (5.11 mm ± 7.32 vs 11.14 mm ± 3.54; P = .023) and the needle-capsule distance was significantly longer (17.52 mm ± 8.04 vs 9.28 mm ± 3.29; P = .0004) than in control subjects. The bimodal distribution of cortical tangential angles (< 30° or ≥ 60°) in minor complication cases (17 of 20; 85.0%) was significantly greater than in the control group (8 of 20; 40.0%; odds ratio = 8.50; P = .004). CONCLUSIONS: This study identifies imaging risk factors in US-guided native kidney biopsy and recommends an algorithm to manage them, including appropriate needle path position between the renal capsule and sinus and proper needle cortical tangential angle.

RESUMO

PURPOSE: To evaluate perioperative outcomes of thermal ablation with microwave (MW), radiofrequency (RF), and cryoablation for stage T1c renal cell carcinoma (RCC). MATERIALS AND METHODS: A retrospective analysis of 384 patients (mean age, 71 y; range, 22-88 y) was performed between October 2006 and October 2016. Mean radius, exophytic/endophytic, nearness to collecting system or sinus, anterior/posterior, and location relative to polar lines; preoperative aspects and dimensions used for anatomic classification; and centrality index scores were 6.3, 7.9, and 2.7, respectively. Assessment of pre- and postablation serum blood urea nitrogen, creatinine, and estimated glomerular filtration rate was performed to assess functional outcomes. Linear regression analyses were performed to compare sedation medication dosages among the three treatment cohorts. Univariable and multivariable logistic regression analyses were performed to compare rates of residual disease and complications among treatment modalities. RESULTS: A total of 437 clinical stage T1N0M0 biopsy-proven RCCs measuring 1.2-6.9 cm were treated with computed tomography (CT)-guided MW ablation (n = 44; 10%), RF ablation (n = 347; 79%), or cryoablation (n = 46; 11%). There were no significant differences in patient demographic or tumor characteristics among cohorts. Complication rates and immediate renal function changes were similar among the three ablation modalities (P = .46 and P = .08, respectively). MW ablation was associated with significantly decreased ablation time (P < .05), procedural time (P < .05), and dosage of sedative medication (P < .05) compared with RF ablation and cryoablation. CONCLUSIONS: CT-guided percutaneous MW ablation is comparable to RF ablation or cryoablation for the treatment of stage T1N0M0 RCC with regard to treatment response and is associated with shorter treatment times and less sedation than RF ablation or cryoablation. In addition, the safety profile of CT-guided MW ablation is noninferior to those of RF ablation or cryoablation.

RESUMO

PURPOSE: To evaluate the safety and efficacy of yttrium-90 (90Y) transarterial radioembolization (TARE) around immunotherapy in patients with unresectable hepatic metastases from uveal melanoma (UM). MATERIALS AND METHODS: From March 2013 to December 2017, 11 patients with unresectable hepatic metastases from UM were treated with TARE around immunotherapy. Two patients received TARE as a first-line treatment followed by immunotherapy. Nine patients received immunotherapy before TARE, and 6 of these patients received additional immunotherapy after TARE. Retrospective review of the clinical data was performed to assess hepatic progression-free survival (hPFS), overall survival (OS), treatment response, and toxicities. The median follow-up period from TARE was 10.5 months (range 1-35.5 months). RESULTS: The median OS from diagnosis of hepatic metastases was 35.5 months (95% confidence interval [CI] 10.0-55.0 months). The median hPFS and OS from the start of TARE were 15.0 months (95% CI 5.9-24.1 months) and 17.0 months (95% CI 1.8-32.2 months), respectively. Complete response was observed in 1 patient (9.1%), partial response in 2 (18.2%), stable disease in 4 (36.4%), and progressive disease in 4 (36.4%). Ten patients had grade 1 or 2 clinical toxicities, and 1 had grade 3 with a peptic ulcer. Six patients had grade 1 or 2 biochemical toxicities and 1 had grade 3, which was related to tumor progression. CONCLUSIONS: The present results suggest that TARE around immunotherapy is safe and effective. The combined treatment may improve hPFS and OS in patients with hepatic metastases from UM.

RESUMO

PURPOSE: To assess safety and renal-function outcomes after microwave (MW) ablation of localized stage T1 renal cell carcinoma (RCC). MATERIALS AND METHODS: A retrospective review was conducted of 38 patients (28 men; mean age, 69 y; range, 51-88 y) who underwent computed tomography (CT)-guided MW ablation for stage T1N0M0 RCC. Baseline and follow-up renal function surrogates including creatinine level and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) were statistically compared. Peri- and postoperative complication rates, technical success, and treatment response were also assessed. RESULTS: A total of 44 biopsy-proven stage T1N0M0 RCCs measuring 1.2-6.9 cm (mean, 2.5 cm) were treated, and renal function was measured 1 mo after treatment. Mean eGFRs were 60 mL/min/1.73 m2 at baseline and 59 mL/min/1.73 m2 at 1 month after ablation. At 1-year and last follow-ups, the means of difference were 3.3% (95% confidence interval, -4.4 to 4.3; P = .99) and 3.3% (95% confidence interval, -4.3 to 4.8; P = .91), respectively. The 2-years freedom from eGFR decrease to < 60 mL/min/1.73 m2 was 2% (P = .91). Among the 5 patients (13%) with preexisting stage 4 chronic kidney disease (CKD; eGFR < 30 mL/min/1.73 m2) before ablation, there was no significant postablative onset of decline or CKD upstaging (P = .001). There were no major complications, and 5 patients (13%) had small asymptomatic perinephric hematomas (Society of Interventional Radiology minor complication, class A/B) that were managed conservatively. CONCLUSIONS: At 2-year follow-up, CT-guided percutaneous MW ablation is safe and well-tolerated and achieves nephron preservation similar to existing ablative modalities.

RESUMO

PURPOSE: To assess the technical success rate, diagnostic yield, and clinical value of computed tomography (CT)-guided percutaneous needle biopsy (PNB) for retroperitoneal and pelvic lymphadenopathy. MATERIALS AND METHODS: This retrospective study included 344 patients evaluated for safety and technique and 334 patients evaluated for diagnostic yield and clinical analyses. PNBs were performed with fine-needle aspiration (FNA) in 315 patients and with core biopsy in 333 patients. Follow-up analyses, including repeat biopsy, open surgery, imaging, and clinical indicators, were conducted for 94 patients who had nonspecific malignant or benign results. Diagnostic yields were calculated based on biopsy and follow-up results. Factors associated with final diagnoses were compared and modeled by multivariate analysis. RESULTS: Technical success rate was 99.7%. Thirty-nine patients (11.3%) had minor complications. From biopsy results and follow-up analyses, final malignant diagnoses were determined for 281 patients (84.1%). Overall sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy rates of PNB were 91.5%, 100%, and 92.8%, respectively. For patients with a history of malignancy, the likelihood of nodal involvement was 84.6% and that of a new, different malignancy was 3.7%. Older age (odds ratio [OR], 1.03; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.00-1.05), history of malignancy (OR, 3.44; 95% CI, 1.71-6.92), multiple lymph nodes (LNs; OR, 2.65; 95% CI, 1.38-5.09), and new or enlarging LNs (OR, 2.62; 95% CI, 1.25-5.48) were independent risk factors for malignancy diagnosis. CONCLUSIONS: CT-guided PNB is a safe, effective procedure that can achieve high diagnostic yields for patients with retroperitoneal and pelvic lymphadenopathy.

RESUMO

PURPOSE: To evaluate local control and survival after image-guided ablation of adrenal gland metastases. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Image-guided ablations of adrenal metastases measuring < 5 cm performed at 2 academic medical centers between July 2002 and June 2016 were analyzed. There were 51 procedures performed on 46 tumors (mean diameter 2.8 cm ± 1.1; range, 0.7-4.9 cm) in 38 patients (mean age 66 y; range, 41-80 y) with renal cell carcinoma (n = 17 patients; 45%), non-small cell lung cancer (n = 10 patients; 26%), and other primary malignancies (n = 11 patients; 29%). Treatment modalities included cryoablation (n = 30 procedures; 59%), radiofrequency ablation (n = 12 procedures; 24%) and microwave ablation (n = 9 procedures; 18%). Technical success, primary and secondary efficacy, local progression rate, local progression-free survival, and overall survival were assessed. Mean follow-up was 37 months (range, 2-128 months). Statistical analysis was performed with univariate Cox hazards regression and Kaplan-Meier analyses. RESULTS: Technical success, primary efficacy, and secondary efficacy were 96%, 72%, and 76%. Local progression rate during all follow-up was 25%. Local tumor progression-free survival at 1, 3, and 5 years was 82%, 69%, and 55%. Overall survival at 1, 3, and 5 years was 82%, 44%, and 34%. In 16 patients with isolated adrenal metastasis, median disease-free survival was 8 months; 4 patients had no evidence of disease during follow-up. Lung cancer was associated with decreased survival (hazard ratio 4.41, P = .002). CONCLUSIONS: Image-guided ablation can achieve local control for adrenal metastases < 5 cm.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: This study assessed radiation dose after CT-guided percutaneous radiofrequency ablations (RFAs) of hepatic and renal tumors and the effect of weight-based CT protocol modification for lowering overall dose in these procedures. MATERIALS AND METHODS: CT-guided RFA for renal and hepatic ablations performed from January 1, 2009, through December 31, 2009, were retrospectively reviewed (90 men and 48 women; age, 42-81 years). The radiation dose was recorded during each of the following steps: planning, performing, and postprocedure. Weight-based protocol modification changes in tube voltage and tube current were then applied to renal and hepatic ablations performed subsequently (18 men and 11 women; age, 48-82 years). Image quality, needle localization, lesion detection, ability to detect complications, and overall operator satisfaction were noted for each case (score, 1-5). Dose reduction after modification was then calculated. RESULTS: Retrospective analysis found a mean (± SD) overall CT dose index (CTDI) for CT-guided RFA to be 16.5 ± 2.3 mGy. After protocol modification, the mean CTDI decreased to 6.63 ± 0.67 mGy, a 59.6% reduction overall; for hepatic ablations, the reduction was 65.96% (p < 0.0001) and the reduction for renal ablations was 38.97% (p = 0.0153). Image quality analysis showed high operator satisfaction (3-5), including adequate needle localization (4-5), lesion visibility (3-5), and high performer confidence (4-5). Higher dose reduction was noted for patients weighing more than 180 lb (82 kg) (p < 0.0001). CONCLUSION: Simple weight-based CT protocol modifications can significantly reduce radiation dose during CT-guided percutaneous ablations in the liver and kidneys without significantly sacrificing image quality.

RESUMO

PURPOSE: To assess clinical efficacy and safety of image-guided percutaneous radiofrequency (RF) ablation of central renal cell carcinoma with adjunctive pyeloperfusion. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Patients with central renal tumors who underwent percutaneous RF ablation between 2005 and 2010 were retrospectively evaluated. Thirty patients with 31 central renal tumors underwent 39 RF ablation sessions. Mean tumor diameter was 3.7 cm (range, 2-7 cm). Median distance between tumor and renal pelvis was 5 mm (range, 0-15 mm). Pyeloperfusion was performed in 27 patients (27/30; 90%). Contrast-enhanced CT or MR imaging was performed to evaluate treatment response. RESULTS: Technical success of RF ablation was achieved in 38/39 (97.4%) ablation sessions. Primary efficacy was 83.9% (26/31) on first follow-up imaging. One (3.2%) case of local tumor progression was detected 6 months after initial ablation. Secondary efficacy was 96.8% (30/31) after repeat RF ablation for residual tumor or local tumor progression. Median follow-up was 88 months (mean 82.6 mo ± 30.7; range, 9-121 mo). Major complications occurred in 5/39 (12.8%) RF ablation sessions. Complications were significantly higher for tumors located within 5 mm of the renal pelvis or 0 mm of a major calyx (28.6% vs 4.0%; P < .05). Overall survival was 96.0% (95% CI, 88.4%-100.0%), and progression-free survival at 5 years was 80.9% (95% CI, 65.8%-95.9%). CONCLUSION: Image-guided percutaneous RF ablation combined with pyeloperfusion has satisfactory clinical efficacy in treating central renal tumors. Although clinically effective, RF ablation of central tumors may also be associated with significant major complications.

RESUMO

PURPOSE: To assess biopsy technique, technical success rate, and diagnostic yield of image-guided percutaneous biopsy of omental and mesenteric lesions. MATERIALS AND METHODS: This retrospective study included 186 patients (89 men, 97 women; mean [SD] age, 63 [13.8] y) who underwent percutaneous image-guided biopsy of omentum and mesentery between March 2007 and August 2015. Biopsies were performed with computed tomography (CT) (n = 172) or ultrasound (US) (n = 14) guidance using coaxial technique yielding core and fine-needle aspiration (FNA) specimens. Biopsy results were classified as diagnostic (neoplastic or nonneoplastic) or nondiagnostic based on histopathology and cytology. Technical success rate and diagnostic yield of omental and mesenteric lesions were calculated. RESULTS: There were 186 image-guided percutaneous biopsies of omental (n = 95) and mesenteric (n = 91) lesions performed. Technical success rate was 99.5% for all biopsies, 100% for omental biopsies, and 98.9% for mesenteric biopsies. Overall sensitivity was 95.5%, specificity was 100%, negative predictive value was 78.3%, and positive predictive value was 100%, which was comparable for omental and mesenteric biopsies. Core biopsies had higher diagnostic yields compared with FNA: 98.4% versus 84% overall, 99% versus 88% for omental biopsies, and 97.7% versus 80% for mesenteric biopsies. Spearman rank correlation showed no correlation between lesion size and diagnostic yield (P = .14) and lesion depth and diagnostic yield (P = .29) for both groups. There were 5 complications. CONCLUSIONS: Image-guided percutaneous omental and mesenteric biopsies have high technical success rates and diagnostic yield regardless of lesion size or depth from the skin for both omental and mesenteric specimens.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: The objective of our study was to assess the technical success, safety, and oncologic and renal function outcomes of CT-guided percutaneous thermal ablation for synchronous multiple renal masses in a single session. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A retrospective analysis of 23 patients (16 men and 7 women; median age, 70 years) with biopsy-proven multifocal renal cell carcinoma (RCC) masses treated with radiofrequency ablation (RFA), cryoablation, or microwave ablation (MWA) was performed. Preablation, postablation, and follow-up serum blood urea nitrogen, creatinine, and estimated glomerular filtration rate (GFR) levels were recorded to evaluate the stability of renal function. Technical success, complications, treatment response, oncologic outcome, and overall survival were assessed. RESULTS: Biopsy-proven RCCs were treated in 23 patients. Median tumor size was 2.3 cm (range, 1.0-4.0 cm). The mean RENAL (radius, exophytic vs endophytic properties, nearness of tumor to the collecting system or sinus, anterior vs posterior, location relative to polar lines) nephrometry score was 6.3 (range, 4.0-10.0); mean PADUA (preoperative aspects and dimensions used for anatomical) score, 7.8 (range, 6.0-11.0); and mean centrality index (C-index), 3.1 (range, 0.7-6.8). The mean ablation time was 23 minutes (range, 3-24 minutes). Technical success was achieved for 100% of tumors. Of the 49 complications, nine (18%) were classified as Clavien-Dindo grade I complications. Complete response was achieved in 41 of the 49 (84%) tumors. Local progression-free, RCC-specific disease-free, and overall survival rates during the imaging follow-up time (mean, 3.1 years; range, 0.1-9.6 years) were 96% (22/23), 100% (23/23), and 91% (21/23), respectively. CONCLUSION: CT-guided percutaneous thermal ablation is a safe, effective, and durable treatment intervention for multifocal renal masses.
