Case description

Treatment options for small renal masses include radical nephrectomy, partial nephrectomy as well as thermal ablation. The following educational video aims at helping one understand the principles of RFA and needle ablation for small renal tumours. This should be discussed during informed consent of patients with small renal masses (along with active surveillance, partial nephrectomy and radical nephrectomy) seeking treatment.
