Published: December 2023

Image-guided ablation is an accepted treatment option in the management of renal cell carcinoma. Percutaneous renal ablation offers the possibility of minimally invasive treatment while attempting to preserve renal function. Over the past several years there have been advances in tools and techniques that have improved procedure safety and patient outcomes. This article provides an updated comprehensive review of percutaneous ablation in the management of renal cell carcinoma.

Introduction: Despite the rapid evolution in management of metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC) over the past decade, challenges remain in accessing new therapies in some parts of the world. Despite therapeutic advancements, attrition rates remain persistently high. This study aims to assess the treatment patterns and attrition rates of patients with mRCC in oncology clinics across Turkey.

Nutcracker syndrome is caused by the compression of the left renal vein between the abdominal aorta and the superior mesenteric artery. The use of Doppler ultrasonography to diagnose this condition is challenging due to the dynamic nature of the nutcracker phenomenon and the variability of its symptoms, which can fluctuate with changes in patient posture and respiration. This review emphasizes the critical role of Doppler ultrasonography in identifying and managing nutcracker syndrome.

Background: The use of venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO) as a cardiocirculatory support has tremendously increased in critically ill patients. Although fluid therapy is an essential component of the hemodynamic management of VA-ECMO patients, the optimal fluid resuscitation strategy remains controversial. We performed a scoping review to map out the existing knowledge on fluid management in terms of fluid type, dosing and the impact of fluid balance on VA-ECMO patient outcomes.

Background: In septic shock, the classic fluid resuscitation strategy can lead to a potentially harmful positive fluid balance. This multicenter, randomized, single-blind, parallel, controlled pilot study assessed the effectiveness of a restrictive fluid strategy aiming to limit daily volume.

Methods: Patients 18-85 years' old admitted to the ICU department of three French hospitals were eligible for inclusion if they had septic shock and were in the first 24 h of vasopressor infusion.
