Cryotherapy

Do we know if anyone is doing this in the United States? I have a patient who has a kidney tumor, and it is looking like it may cost him his kidney, where this type of treatment would preserve some kidney function. Thanks for providing this timely article to us.

I know that the University of Virginia Health System's Kidney Center treats renal carcinoma with cryotherapy. Perhaps they would know physicians in your area who also does this type of treatment. Link Phone number: (434) 924-5959
