Ablation of perivascular hepatic malignant tumors with irreversible electroporation.
BACKGROUND Ablation is increasingly used to treat primary and secondary liver cancer. Ablation near portal pedicles and hepatic veins is challenging. Irreversible electroporation (IRE) is a new ablation technique that does not rely on heat and, in animals, appears to be safe and effective when applied near hepatic veins and portal pedicles. This study evaluated the safety and short-term outcome...
متن کاملSafety and early efficacy of irreversible electroporation for hepatic tumors in proximity to vital structures.
INTRODUCTION Irreversible electroporation (IRE) has shown promise for ablation of lesions in proximity to vital structures in the preclinical setting. This study aims to evaluate the safety and efficacy of IRE for hepatic tumors in the clinical setting. METHODS An IRB approved prospective registry of patients undergoing IRE for hepatic tumors over a 2-year period. Factors analyzed included pa...
متن کاملIrreversible electroporation for the treatment of pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors
BACKGROUNDS/AIMS Resection or enucleation is currently the treatment of choice for small pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (NETs). Irreversible electroporation is a novel ablative method that is used for locally advanced pancreatic adenocarcinoma, but little data exists for its use for pancreatic NETs. We report an early experience of IRE for early pancreatic NETs. METHODS Between April 2014 a...
متن کاملIrreversible Electroporation: a Novel Option for Treatment of Hepatic Metastases
Irreversible electroporation (IRE) has shown promise for ablation of lesions in proximity to vital structures in the preclinical and now clinical setting. Studies of patients undergoing IRE for treatment of metastatic colorectal cancer to the liver were reviewed for patient and tumor characteristics, treatment-related complications, and local recurrence-free survival (LRFS) for ablated lesions....
متن کاملIrreversible Electroporation as a Treatment for Pancreatic Neuroendocrine Tumors
There is limited information using irreversible electroporation to treat pancreatic tumors. We report a case of a 78-year-old male who underwent irreversible electroporation of a pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor.
