Abstract:
OBJECTIVE:To investigate the relationship between multiple cryoprobes was investigated to determine whether they work in an additive or synergistic fashion in an in vivo animal model because 1.47 mm (17-gauge) cryoprobes have been introduced to the armamentarium for renal cryotherapy. METHODS:Laparoscopic-guided percutaneous cryoablation was performed in both renal poles of 3 pigs using 3 IceRod cryoprobes. These 12 cryolesions were compared with 12 cryolesions using a single IceRod cryoprobe. Each cycle consisted of two 10-minute freeze cycles separated by a 5-minute thaw. The iceball volume was measured using intraoperative ultrasonography. The kidneys were harvested, and cryolesion surface area was calculated. The lesions were fixed and excised to obtain a volume measurement. Statistical analysis was used to compare the single probe results multiplied by 3 to the multiple probe group for iceball volume, cryolesion surface area, and cryolesion volume. RESULTS:The iceball volume for the first freeze cycle for the single cryoprobe multiplied by 3 was 8.55 cm3 compared with 9.79 cm3 for the multiple cryoprobe group (P=.44) and 10.01 cm3 versus 16.58 cm3 for the second freeze (P=.03). The cryolesion volume for the single cryoprobe multiplied by 3 was 11.29 cm3 versus 14.75 cm3 for the multiple cyroprobe group (P=.06). The gross cryolesion surface area for the single cryoprobe multiplied by 3 was 13.14 cm2 versus 13.89 cm2 for the multiple probe group (P=.52). CONCLUSION:The cryolesion created by 3 simultaneously activated 1.47-mm probes appears to be larger than that of an additive effect. The lesions were significantly larger as measured by ultrasonography and nearly so (P=.06) as measured by the gross cryolesion volume.
