Percutaneous Microwave Ablation Liver Partition and Portal Vein Embolization for Rapid Liver Regeneration
To the Editor S ince its introduction by Schnitzbauer et al 1 in 2012, associating liver partition and portal vein ligation for staged hepatectomy (ALPPS) became a promising strategy for patients with insufficient future liver remnant (FLR). Despite the efficacy of ALPPS in triggering rapid hypertrophy of FLR, high incidence of postoperative morbidity and mortality poses a major drawback, espec...
متن کاملHepatocellular carcinoma invading portal venous system in cirrhosis: long-term results of percutaneous radiofrequency ablation of both the nodule and portal vein tumor thrombus. A case control study.
UNLABELLED Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is one of the leading causes of cancer-related death. Portal vein tumor thrombus (PVTT) is one of the most dreadful complications of HCC and is associated with a median survival time of 2.7-4.0 months. The optimal treatment for HCC with PVTT has not yet been established. The aim of the present study was to report long-term results of percutaneous radiof...
متن کاملUltrasound-Guided Percutaneous Microwave Ablation for Solid Benign Thyroid Nodules: Comparison of MWA versus Control Group
Background The aim of this research is to investigate the feasibility of percutaneous ultrasound-guided microwave ablation (MWA) for benign solid thyroid nodules. Methods Ultrasound-guided percutaneous microwave ablation was performed for 90 benign solid thyroid nodules in 75 patients. The volume changes of the nodules were evaluated before and after microwave ablation, and the cosmetic gradi...
متن کاملComputed tomography-guided percutaneous microwave ablation therapy for lung cancer.
This study evaluated the clinical efficacy and value of computed tomography (CT)-guided percutaneous microwave ablation therapy (PMAT) for lung cancer without surgical treatment. A total of 39 lesions in 29 patients with peripheral lung cancer were treated by CT-guided PMAT under local anesthesia. The microwave energy was 50-70 W at a frequency of 2450 MHz. The treatment was performed by using ...
متن کاملManagement of Bleeding in Extrahepatic Portal Venous Obstruction
Extrahepatic portal venous obstruction, although rare in the western world, is a common cause of major and life threatening upper gastrointestinal bleeding among the poor in developing countries. Patients have large spleens and stunted growth. The diagnosis is easily confirmed by Doppler ultrasonography. Endoscopy sclerotherapy is the best option for the control of acute variceal bleeding. For ...
