It was reported that the procedure was canceled due to a fault in the cryoablation systems.A visual-ice cryoablation system was selected for a renal cryoablation procedure.During the procedure set-up, the needles were inserted, and one of the channels did not log any needles.The needles were moved to a new channel, but the screen greyed out and no buttons could be pressed.The visual-ice cryoablation system was exchanged for a second visual-ice cryoablation system, and the needles were also exchanged for new ones.However, the same faults occurred with the new console and needles.The procedure was rescheduled to a later date as a result.The patient was sedated under general anesthesia at the time of the procedure cancellation.There were no complications reported.
