Abstract
Renal cryoablation is a treatment option for early stage renal cell carcinomas with excellent oncological outcomes and low morbidity. This review outlines the technique of renal cryoablation and provides a guide for interventional radiologists on setting up an integrated service within a renal cancer network multidisciplinary setting. Patient selection and preparation, together with the technical aspects which ensure optimal oncological outcomes and avoid collateral damage to adjacent organs are highlighted.Keywords
