Abstract
AIMS There is limited evidence to support the efficacy of sacral neuromodulation (SNM) for older adults with overactive bladder (OAB). This study aims to report outcomes following SNM among nursing home (NH) residents, a vulnerable population with high rates of frailty and comorbidity. METHODS This is a retrospective cohort study of long-stay NH residents who underwent a trial of percutaneous nerve evaluation (PNE) or Stage 1 permanent lead placement (Stage 1) between 2014 and 2016. Residents were identified using the Minimum Data Set linked to Medicare claims. The primary outcome of this study was successful progression from trial to implant. Rates of 1-year device explant/revisions were also investigated. RESULTS Trial of SNM was observed in 1089 residents (mean age: 77.9 years). PNE was performed in 66.9% of residents and 33.2% underwent Stage 1. Of Stage 1 procedures, 23.8% were performed with simultaneous device implant (single-stage). Overall, 53.1% of PNEs and 72.4% of Stage 1 progressed to device implant, which was associated with Stage 1 procedure versus PNE (adjusted relative risk [aRR]: 1.34; 95% confidence interval [95% CI]: 1.21-1.49) and female versus male sex (aRR: 1.26; 95% CI: 1.09-1.46). One-year explant/revision was observed in 9.3% of residents (6.3% for PNE, 10.5% for Stage 1, 20.3% single-stage). Single stage procedure versus PNE was significantly associated with device explant/revision (aRR: 3.4; 95% CI: 1.9-6.2). CONCLUSIONS In this large cohort of NH residents, outcomes following SNM were similar to previous reports of younger healthier cohorts. Surgeons managing older patients with OAB should use caution when selecting patients for single stage SNM procedures.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the effect of intra-procedural contrast-enhanced CT (CECT) and same-session repeat ablation (SSRA) on primary efficacy, the complete eradication of tumor after the first ablation session as confirmed on first imaging follow-up, of clinically localized T1a (cT1a) renal cell carcinoma (RCC). METHODS 398 consecutive patients with cT1a RCC were treated with cryoablation between 10/2003 and 12/2017, radiofrequency (RFA) or microwave ablation (MWA) between 1/2010 and 12/2017. SSRA was performed for residual tumor identified on intra-procedural CECT. Kruskal-Wallis and Pearson's chi-squared tests were performed to assess differences in continuous and categorical variables, respectively. Multivariate linear regression was used to determine predictors for primary efficacy and decline in estimated glomerular filtration rate. RESULTS 347 consecutive patients (231 M, mean age 67.5 ± 9.1 years) were included. Median tumor diameter was smaller [2.5 vs 2.7 vs 2.6 (p = 0.03)] and RENAL Nephrometry Score (NS) was lower [6 vs 7 vs 7 (p = 0.009] for MWA compared to the RFA and cryoablation cohorts, respectively. Primary efficacy was higher in the MWA cohort [99.4% (170/171)] compared to the RFA [91.4% (85/93)] and cryoablation [92.8% (77/83)] cohorts (p = 0.001). Microwave ablation and SSRA was associated with higher primary efficacy on multivariate linear regression (p = 0.01-0.03). CONCLUSION MWA augmented by SSRA, when residual tumor is identified on intra-procedural CECT, may improve primary efficacy for cT1a RCC.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the effect of intravenous iodinated contrast on estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) when administered immediately after thermal ablation of clinically localized T1a (cT1a) renal cell carcinoma (RCC). METHODS This HIPAA-compliant, dual-center retrospective study was performed under a waiver of informed consent. Three hundred forty-two consecutive patients with cT1a biopsy-proven RCC were treated with percutaneous ablation between January 2010 and December 2017. Immediate post-ablation contrast-enhanced CT was the routine standard of care at one institution (contrast group), but not the other (control group). One-month pre- and 6-month post-ablation eGFR were compared using the Wilcoxon signed-rank test or the Kruskal-Wallis test. Multivariate linear regression was used to determine the effect of contrast on eGFR. A 1:1 propensity score matching was performed for all patients with a logistic model using patient, tumor, and procedural covariates. RESULTS In total, 246 patients (158 M; median age 69 years, IQR 62-74) were included. Median tumor diameter (2.4 vs 2.5, p = 0.23) and RENAL nephrometry scores (6 vs 6, p = 0.92), surrogates for ablation zone size, were similar. Baseline kidney function was similar for the control and contrast groups, respectively (median eGFR: 70 vs 74 mL/min/1.73 m2, p = 0.29). There was an expected mild decline in eGFR after ablation (control: 70 vs 60 mL/min/1.73 m2, p < 0.001; contrast: 75 vs 71 mL/min/1.73 m2, p = 0.001). Intravenous iodinated contrast was not associated with a decline in eGFR on multivariate linear regression (1.91, 95% CI - 3.43-7.24, p = 0.46) or 1:1 propensity score-matched model (- 0.33, 95% CI - 6.81-6.15, p = 0.92). CONCLUSION Intravenous iodinated contrast administered during ablation of cT1a RCC has no effect on eGFR. KEY POINTS • Intravenous iodinated contrast administered during thermal ablation of clinically localized T1a renal cell carcinoma has no effect on kidney function. • Thermal ablation of clinically localized T1a renal cell carcinoma results in a mild decline in kidney function. • A decline in kidney function is similar for radiofrequency and microwave ablation of clinically localized T1a renal cell carcinoma.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To describe the CT and MR imaging findings after microwave ablation of clinical stage 1 renal cell carcinoma (RCC). METHODS This single-center retrospective study was performed under a waiver of informed consent. 49 patients (38 M/11F, mean age 66 ± 9.0) with 52 cT1a RCC and 19 patients (10M/9F, mean age 67 ± 9.7) with 19 cT1b RCC were treated with percutaneous microwave ablation between January 2012 and June 2014. The size and volume of the RCC and ablation zone were measured and the kidney, ablation zones and retroperitoneum were assessed at immediate post-procedure CT and surveillance CT and MRI. RESULTS Median imaging follow-up was 18 months (IQR 12-28). Ablation zones were heterogeneously hyperintense on T1W and hypointense on T2W MRI and hyperdense at CT. Thin peripheral, but no internal enhancement after contrast administration signified successful ablation zones. Ablation zones decreased in size, but did not resolve during surveillance. Immediate post-procedure subcapsular gas and hematoma (5/71, 7%) resolved prior to first follow-up. Focal, enhancing soft tissue within the ablation zone, invariably along the renal margin, signified local recurrence. Local recurrence rates were higher for T1b (2/19, 11%) compared to T1a (1/52, 2%). Urinomas (4/71, 6%) decreased in size and resolved during surveillance. Retroperitoneal fat necrosis (6/71, 9%), with opposed-phase loss of T1W MRI signal, was confirmed at histology after percutaneous biopsy. CONCLUSION CT and MR imaging features after microwave ablation of renal cell carcinoma are predictable and reliably demonstrate treatment success, early and delayed complications, and local recurrences that can guide patient management.
