The protective effect of epigallocatechin gallate on oxidative stress triggered through mitochondria and endoplasmic reticulum in a metabolic syndrome-induced bladder overactivity rat model

s / Urological Science 26 (2015) S50eS81 S73 before RFA and 22 been proved RCC. The number of RFA needle treatment were significantly correlated to PADUA score. 13 patients were under local anesthesia, the other were under IVGA by anesthesiologist. Only one patient presented mild pneumothorax after RFA without intervention treatment. Renal function deterioration after procedure did not reveal clinical significance. Tumor recurrence was recognized by CT scan in 3 patients during followup, who repeated RFA treatment without recurrence. Conclusion: For carefully selected patients, RFA represent a less invasive alternative associated with less morbidity and fewer complications and a promising treatment compared with partial nephrectomy. However, the long-term efficacy of these approaches remains to be established.
