Resection or Ablation of Small Kidney Tumors
Sponsor: Karolinska University Hospital
Summary
Ablative treatments are believed to have a lower rate of complications, shorter hospital stays, and fewer interventions with benign PAD compared to partial nephrectomies in small kidney cancer lesions. The purpose of the study is to compare complications, the frequency of residual tumors, impact on kidney function, differences in quality of life, and health economic factors in a randomised study. We will also compare the oncological outcomes, including survival and recurrence of kidney cancer.
