High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound in Small Renal Masses
Briones JR et al. - HIFU is a promising approach to treat SRM because it is probably the most minimally invasive among the proposed techniques. Nevertheless, the number of treated patients is very small, and its results with the percutaneous approach make it not applicable to the humans with a curative intent. Laparoscopic approach makes it a loose part of its “minimally invasive” principles, but preliminary data show better thermal necrosis results and better US real-time control of the treatment.
