Abstract

The proportion of renal tumors found incidentally has dramatically increased in the past decade. More than half were diagnosed in patients over 70 years of age, a population with a high rate of associated comorbidity. Nephron-sparing minimally invasive surgical procedures are aimed at treating patients with small renal tumors and multiple comorbidities. Cryotherapy stands out among all other ablative procedures because of its better mid-term oncological outcome.

A non-systematic review of the literature on cryotherapy as a treatment for renal tumors was made, analyzing its indications, actual and future application techniques, results, and complications.

Keywords:
Cryotherapy
Renal tumor
Laparoscopy
Resumen

La proporción de tumores renales incidentales ha incrementado drásticamente en la ultima década, siendo diagnosticados en más de la mitad de los casos en pacientes mayores de 70 años, población con una alta comorbilidad asociada. Las técnicas ablativas mínimamente invasivas conservadoras de parénquima están destinadas a tratar a pacientes con tumores renales pequeños y múltiple comorbilidad. La crioterapia destaca sobre otras técnicas ablativas por sus mejores resultados oncológicos a medio plazo.

Realizamos una revisión no sistemática de la literatura médica analizando la crioterapia como tratamiento de los tumores renales, analizando sus indicaciones, las técnicas de aplicación actuales y las perspectivas de futuro, los resultados y las complicaciones.
