Popis: Aim To evaluate the use of pre-cryoablation biopsy for small renal masses (SRMs) and the effects of increasing up take on histological results of treated SMRs. Method From 2015 to 2019, patients with sporadic T1N0M0 SRMs undergoing percutaneous, laparoscopic or open cryoablation from 14 European institutions within the European Registry For Renal Cryoablation (EuRECA) were included for the retrospective analysis. Univariate and multivariate logistic models were used to evaluate the trends, histological results and the factors influencing use of pre-cryoablation biopsy. Results 871 patients (Median [IQR] age, 69[14], 298 women) undergoing cryoablation were evaluated. The use of pre-cryoablation biopsy has significantly increased from 42% (65/156) in 2015 to 72% (88/122) in 2019 (p1 are factors associated with lower likelihood to not have received a pre-cryoablation biopsy (p Conclusion An increased use of pre-cryoablation biopsy was observed and cryoablation patients treated with a benign histology is more likely to have presented in periods where pre-cryoablation biopsy is not as prevalent. Comparative studies are needed to draw definitive conclusions on the effect of pre-cryoablation biopsy on SRM treatments.
