Comparison of Partial Nephrectomy and Percutaneous Ablation for cT1 Renal Masses

TL;DR: In this paper, partial nephrectomy (PN) is a preferred treatment for cT1 renal masses, whereas thermal ablation represents an alternative nephron-sparing option, albeit with higher reported rates of recurrence.
