Abstract
Renal percutaneous IRE appears to be a safe treatment for pT1a RCC but requires substantial procedural effort. Resection specimens of the ablation zone revealed a high rate of microscopic incomplete ablation 4 weeks after IRE. According to these initial study results, curative, kidney-sparing ablation of T1a RCC appears possible but needs technical improvement to ensure complete ablation.
