The distance between the tumour and ureter as well as the tumour size were measured on axial imaging. Pyeloperfusion was performed in nine patients in this series after placement of a ureteral stent and instilment of diluted contrast into the ureter. MWAs of the tumours were performed under computed tomography (CT) guidance. Hydrodissection was performed to displace at-risk organs. Crea\u00adtinine was measured as renal function index after and before the procedure. A CT scan was performed at the end of the procedure and also after one, three, and six months, to identify the presence of residual disease and complications.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>Eighteen biopsies of proven RCC were treated with 20 sessions of MWA. The average follow-up time for this study was 180 days. The average distance between the ureter and the tumour in axial CT view was 20.8 (\u00b1 2.9) mm. Primary efficacy was achieved in 88% of pyeloperfused patients and in 100% of the non-pyeloperfused patients. Two pyeloperfused patients required secondary procedure, and full secondary efficacy was achieved for both. There was only one grade 2 urological complication, which occurred in a patient who underwent pyeloperfusion.
