Presentation

Black Box

Synopsis: Single kidney cancer is a big issue for oncologists. Operable tumours still are treated by surgery or ablative modalities. But central tumours are not among the most wanted. At NCI of Lithuania, we have quite large series of central single kidney tumours successfully treated with cryoablation. This kind of treatment must become the first-choice modality in such difficult cases.
