摘要

Purpose

To evaluate the efficacy and safety of renal artery embolization (RAE) in hypervascular renal tumors using Tantalum-Loaded Obsidio™ Conformable Embolic (Ta-OCE).

Methods

A single-center institutional review board (IRB) approved retrospective analysis of consecutive patients with benign and malignant hypervascular renal tumors treated with Ta-OCE between May 2023 and June 2024 was performed. Specific clinical data on tumor size reduction, renal function preservation, bleeding, and complications were collected. Follow-up imaging was conducted using MRI or CT scans. Adverse events were evaluated according to the Common Toxicity Criteria for Adverse Events (v.5). Student’s t-test was used to compare continuous variables.

Results

Overall, N = 10 patients (mean age 64.1 + 14.9 (SD) years, 46% female) were included; 5 patients with renal cell carcinoma (RCC) and 5 patients with angiomyolipoma (AML). Technical success was achieved in all 10 patients. There was a significant reduction in tumor diameter of 1.03 cm following embolization (p = 0.0009). There was no significant change in renal function post-RAE at 1 month, GFR pre-(72.8 ± 23.5 mL/min/1.73 m2, GFR post 63 ± 24.7 mL/min/1.73 m2, with a mean change in GFR (%) of − 13.5 ± 11.2%. (p = 0.116). Additionally, no significant bleeding requiring further intervention was experienced. One patient experienced a Grade 1 adverse effect due to an underlying heart condition.

Conclusion

Embolization of hypervascular renal tumors with Ta-OCE appears to be safe and effective. Prospective, ideally multicenter studies are needed to further clarify the ideal scenarios for the use of Ta-OCE in hypervascular renal tumors.
