OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the laparoscopic and percutaneous delivery of impedance-based radiofrequency ablation (RFA) of the kidney by studying the acute and chronic clinical, radiographic, and histopathologic effects in the porcine model.
METHODS: Eight kidneys from 4 pigs underwent laparoscopic RFA. Six kidneys from 3 additional pigs received computed tomography (CT)-guided, percutaneous RFA. CT scans were performed immediately after RFA and before harvest at 2 hours, 24 hours, 3 weeks, and 13 weeks. The gross, radiographic, and histopathologic changes were recorded for each period.
RESULTS: Grossly, the RFA lesions were sharply demarcated, measuring 3 to 5 cm. Two major complications (14%) occurred (one urinoma, one psoas muscle injury) in 14 ablations. No deaths or significant blood loss occurred as a result of RFA. Radiographically, the immediate CT scanning demonstrated small perinephric hematomas and wedge-shaped defects. Delayed CT showed nonenhancing defects up to 5 cm. Color-flow and power Doppler were unable to distinguish significant tissue changes during RFA. The histopathologic evaluation revealed marked inflammation surrounding the necrotic regions in the early lesions; chronic lesions were characterized by dense fibrosis. The tissue temperatures ranged from 62 degrees to 118 degrees C in the area of ablation.
CONCLUSIONS: RFA is readily delivered laparoscopically or percutaneously with minimal morbidity. Impedance-based application of radiofrequency energy allows monitoring and control of ablation. Using a multi-antenna probe, areas of tissue up to 5 cm can be completely destroyed. The RFA lesion can be monitored as a nonenhancing cortical defect on CT.
