Combining Transarterial Embolization and Percutaneous Cryoablation for Early-Stage Renal Cell Carcinoma: Embolization Materials and Impacts of Tumor Size
For TAE prior to PCA for early-stage RCC, gelatin sponges can replace absolute ethanol to reduce intraprocedural pain. Tumor size correlates with operative time and the number of cryoneedles needed for PCA, which suggests the total medical cost for PCA therefore varies based on the tumor's size.
