26 Postop: MRI
27 Second open transabdominal multiple cryoablation on right kidney 17th November 2005 Preop Krea 108 Postop Krea 360 Controlled Krea 214 2nd January 2006 MRI : no tumour Still no dialysis
28 Nephrectomy l.dx Kidney MRI : 3 new right renal tumours, of which one close to hilus Radical right nephrectomy PAD pt3n0g2 renal adenocarcinoma Thoraxrtg : small suspect findings in both lungs Cerebral CT : 3 cerebral metastasis Rx and Sutent in our oncologic unit
29 Percutaneus ultrasound guided cryoablation of renal cell carcinoma 85 years old male Severe aorta valve stenosis with dyspnea Debuted with hematuria und right flan pain elevated Krea >200 US right kidney hydronepfrotic, lower pole 3 cm tumour double pigtail to the right side Krea down to 176 US needle biopsy PAD: clarocellular renal adenocarcinoma GI
30 Lower pole tumour in the right kidney
31 Inoperable due to cardiac disease New option needed: Nephronspearing in local anesthesia Percutaneus cryoneedle ablation of right lowerpole tumour in ultrasound control 22nd March 2005
32 Collaboration between urologist and radiologist
33 Ultrasound guided needle insertion
34 Template guided
35 Freezing shadow on ultrasound
36 Follow up MRI at one year 14th February 2006
37 MRI : no tumour
38 Follow up Pig-tail withdrawel Cystoscopi OK No more haematuria MRI : Tumour shrinking MRI : No tumour US : No evident tumour Krea 136, Still alive MRI 2008, no tumour

42 Percutaneus needle insertion after laparoscopic exploration
43 Freezing first needle for fixation of the tumor
44 Transabdominal intraoperative US Mandatory to find and define endophytic tumours. Guiding needles placement in all tumours, exophytic as endophytic.

56 72 year old female Backpain fall 2006 Preop CT ,5 cm tumour in the right kidney Cryoablation PresIce Tacozil for control of bleeding PAD: Adenoca G1 MRI : no tumour
57 Next step Retroperitonel lapascopic approach as in Heilbronn, Germany
58 Laparoscopic approach standard Transabdominal laparoscopy for cryoablation of tumours on the anterior side of the kidney Retroperitoneal laparoscopy for cryoablation of tumours on the posterior side of the kidney If robotic surgery availabel it can be used equally
59 Conclusion 1 All nephronspearing cryoablation is a safe option of kidneycancer treatment in patients with small tumors < 4 cm and risk of renal failure No dialysis needed cheep Good quality of life
60 Conclusion 2 Nowadays cryoablation of small kidneytumors < 4 cm cm is used on regular bases as a nephronsparing method Percutaneus, laparoscopic or open surgery routes can be used equally, depending on the site of the tumor and the possible approach
61 Marberger,EAU Milan 08 Pooled 5 years followup data showes cryoablation of small kidney tumors as superior to RF. Cryo patients 98% disease free RF patients 80% disease free
62 Cryoablation of small renal tumours produces recurrences rates approaching, and morbidity rates significantly less, than those of LPN. Kyle J. Weld and Jaime Landman 2005 BJU International / 96,
63 5 years results of laparoscopic renal cryoablation seem to be sustained over time. Robert J. Stein and Jihad H. Kaouk 2007 BJU International / 99,
64 Jean de la Rosette, Amsterdam 2008 Cryablation can safely be offered to all patients with small kidney tumors
65 Cryoablation of renal tumours should be limited to lesions not greater than 4 cm D. Brooke Johnson et al The Journal of Urology /04/ /0 Vol. 172, , September 2004
