Abstract

Laparoscopic cryoablation seems to be an effective treatment modality for small peripheral renal tumors. The technique is minimally invasive, has a rapid learning curve, results in minimal blood loss and morbidity, and, to date, has demonstrated precise reliable ablation of small renal neoplasms. Long-term follow-up is necessary to confirm the absence of local tumor recurrence or distant or port-site metastases.
