Neuromuscular complications after percutaneous radiofrequency ablation of renal tumors

Sam B Bhayani et al. Urology. 2005 Mar.

Abstract

Neuromuscular complications after percutaneous renal tumor ablation have not been previously reported. In a series of 48 patients undergoing percutaneous ablation, 3 of our patients had neuromuscular complications. One patient developed permanent flank laxity and two had transient paresthesias. Neuromuscular complications are uncommon, but may occur with percutaneous renal ablative surgery.
