To assess efficacy and morbidity of microwave ablation (MWA) for small renal tumors in an initial cohort of patients. MWA is a recently introduced thermal needle ablation treatment modality with theoretical advantages compared with radiofrequency ablation, such as greater intratumoral temperatures, lack of a grounding pad, and superior convection profile. However, experience has been limited in the human kidney.
