In this study we reviewed our experience with percutaneous ablation of OMRCC adrenal lesions. METHODS: The records of OMRCC patients with adrenal lesions ablation (ALA) from January 2006 to July 2023 were retrospectively reviewed. 1-5 metastatic lesions were considered OMRCC. Patients were assessed for disease progression, local recurrence, and complications. Data analysis was performed using R 4.3 (R Core Team, 2023). RESULTS: 9 males and 1 female, with a median age of 65 (Interquartile Range (IQR) 60-73), had 15 percutaneous ALA for OMRCC. 5 had single ablation, 2 bilateral ablations, and 3 needed repeat ablations. Median lesion size was 27mm (IQR 22-30). Microwave and radiofrequency ALA was performed on 12 and 3 cases, respectively. All patients had previous nephrectomy, including 4 ipsilateral adrenalectomies. Prior to ALA, 3 patients received systemic treatment. The average time to metastasis was 3.3 years (IQR 0.3-3.92). There were on average 1.6 (IQR 1-2) metastatic sites. Prior to ALA no endocrine abnormalities were documented. In all ALA cases, the intent was to cure; 2/10 of the cases had localized pain concurrently. International Metastatic RCC Database Consortium classified 10 patients as intermediate risk and 5 as good risk for each procedure. Safety hydro dissection was used in 9/15 cases. 1 patient was admitted to the intensive care unit after experiencing an adrenergic crisis and discharged after 7 days. 1 patient was readmitted to the ER due to pain at the ALA site. 3/10 patients had same adrenal disease recurrence, all 3 had re-ALA after a median time of 7 months (min, max 3.9,11.2). 6/10 patients received systemic therapy over an average of 10 (±11.2) cycles including 3 patients who underwent treatment before ALA. Over a median follow-up time of 39.2 (31.2-60.6) months, 3/10 had disease progression and eventually died from the disease. 2 patients died from other causes. As a result, OMRCC treated with ALA had a 3-year cancer-specific survival rate of 70%. Figure 1 illustrates the disease course of each patient. CONCLUSIONS: ALA for OMRCC is a relatively safe procedure with good local control rates. Adapting these treatment methods to the right patient is still a work in progress in the era of immunotherapy treatments.
