Comparison of renal function detriments after local tumor ablation or partial nephrectomy for renal cell carcinoma

Conclusions LTA offers short-term protective effect from AKI. The short-term rates of any dialysis treatment are similar after either LTA or PN. At long-term assessment, LTA and PN renal function detriment rates are not different. Concern for long-term functional outcomes should not be a barrier for PN.
