Objective And Method: To focus on indications and results of ablative treatments (cyoablation, radiofrequency) for small renal masses, a bibliographic research was conducted in MedLine database using terms of "ablative treatment", "cryotherapy", "radiofrequency", "kidney cancer", "renal cell carcinoma". Sixty-four articles were selected.
Results: Carcinologic outcomes seem to be better with cryoablation than with radiofrequency.

Purpose: The management of high grade blunt renal injury has evolved with time to become increasingly conservative with the ultimate objective of renal preservation. We evaluated relative renal function with dimercapto-succinic acid renal scintigraphy 6 months after major renal trauma (grade IV or V).
Materials And Methods: This prospective observational study was done between January 2004 and April 2010.
