Prior research has investigated the use of tranexamic acid (TXA) in diverse urologic procedures, yet there is a no evidence regarding its application in PCA. This study assesses the efficacy of pre-operative TXA in reducing post-operative perinephric hematoma formation. METHODS: Patients who underwent PCA of renal masses from June 2020 to June 2023 were analyzed. Cryoprobe placement and ice-ball formation were monitored via computed tomography (CT) imaging intraoperatively. Perinephric hematoma status was determined upon review of CT imaging performed at the end of the treatment. Pre-operative IV TXA was regularly administered commencing August 2021. AIC minimized generalized linear models with a logit link function were developed for the primary outcome of post-procedural perinephric hematoma and secondary outcome of same-day discharge. A Fisher's Exact Test was used to compare TXA and non-TXA groups. RESULTS: This study included 223 patients (TXA; n=118, non-TXA; n=105) with a median age of 65.8 years and median follow-up of 15 months. There were relatively fewer post-operative perinephric hematomas in the TXA group (27.1%) relative to the non-TXA group (39.1%) (Table 1). TXA administration was associated with an OR of 0.54 95% CI, 0.29–1.01; p-value = 0.055 when analyzing post-operative perinephric hematoma. Same day discharge incidence was higher in the TXA group (88.1%) relative to the non-TXA group (76.2%). TXA was associated with an OR of 2.80 95% CI, 1.25–6.26; p-value = 0.013 when analyzing same day discharge (Figure 1). The Clavien-Dindo 3+ complication rate was 1.8%, overall local recurrence rate was 0.0%, and residual disease rate was 3.1% for the aggregate cohort. CONCLUSIONS: This study provides novel evidence for the administration of pre-operative TXA in reducing perinephric hematoma post PCA, as well as increasing the likelihood of same day discharge.
