Endourology Sound Bites #2: Biopsy and the "small renal mass": Not a dilemma but rather a debacle
December 2018
- Endourology Sound Bites Podcast Series - Episode 2: Biopsy and the "small renal mass": Not a dilemma but rather a debacle. In this podcast Jaime Landman - Professor of Urology and Radiology & Chairman of the Department of Urology at University of California, Irvine reviews contemporary small renal mass biopsy. A historical perspective on the problem will help to highlight how our current standard of care has taken us far from the realities of contemporary oncologic treatment as manifested by all other surgical disciplines. Renal cortical neoplasm biopsy data will be provided and framed in the perspective of biopsies in other surgical disciplines and in other organ systems to demonstrate how the urological perspective differs from the standard in other fields without a biological rationale. Additionally, novel in office ultrasound guided biopsy technique and results will be reviewed.
