Therapeutic Efficacy of Percutaneous Radiofrequency Ablation versus Microwave Ablation for Hepatocellular Carcinoma
The aim of this study was to investigate the therapeutic efficacy of percutaneous radiofrequency (RF) ablation versus microwave (MW) ablation for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) measuring ≤ 5 cm in greatest diameter. From January 2006 to December 2006, 78 patients had undergone RF ablation whereas 77 had undergone MW ablation. Complete ablation (CA), local tumour progression (LTP) and distant re...
متن کامل[Percutaneous microwave coagulation therapy for hepatocellular carcinoma].
We performed percutaneous microwave coagulation therapy (PMCT) for 34 hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients, including 18 primary and 16 recurrent HCC ones. Cumulative 1, 2-, 3- and 4-year survival rates of primary HCC patients were 94, 78, 78% and 62%, respectively, while those of recurrent HCC patients were 100, 79, 62% and 41%, respectively. There were no differences between groups. In bot...
متن کاملPercutaneous Local Ablation Therapy for Hepatocellular Carcinoma
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a prevalent disease in Asia and the second leading cause of cancer death in Hong Kong.1 Surgical resection is regarded as the curative treatment. However, only 20% to 30% of HCC patients are suitable surgical candidates.2,3 Over the years, various locoregional therapies have been employed for the treatment of unresectable HCC. These include the widely practised...
متن کاملPercutaneous radiofrequency thermal ablation for hepatocellular carcinoma.
BACKGROUND Radiofrequency thermal ablation is the first therapeutic option in percutaneous treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma but data on its long-term efficacy and safety are not conclusive. AIM This study reports a prospective survey on radiofrequency thermal ablation in north-east Italy. METHODS Data were collected on 401 patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (males 301, mean age: 68...
متن کاملLocal Tumor Progression of Hepatocellular Carcinoma After Microwave Percutaneous Ablation: A Preliminary Report
BACKGROUND Microwaves (MW) technology is an ablative treatment alternative to radiofrequency (RF) for early stages of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in cirrhotic patients not suitable for surgical resection. It is well known that HCC lesions ≥ 30 mm treated by RF show a high rate of local tumor progression because of residual of unablated neoplastic tissue. METHODS Aim of this study was to de...
