Résumé

Several reports have documented that renal cryoablation when used either via open or laparoscopic surgical techniques can be well tolerated in animal models. The authors sought to examine the feasibility of performing renal cryoablation percutaneously, under ultrasound guidance, in a porcine model. A total of 13 juvenile swine was treated. In each animal the lower pole of the left kidney was used as the target. Each animal had serum drawn for Hct, Wbc, CK, BUN, creatinine, and myoglobin pre- and postcryoablation and again at the time of sacrifice. Animals were sacrificed at 0-42 days postoperatively, and the treated renal units were harvested and submitted for histologic examination.
