Case report: Irreversible electroporation for locally advanced pancreatic cancer
INTRODUCTION For patients with pancreatic adenocarcinoma who are not candidates for surgical resection, long-term survival is poor, even with currently available systemic and radiation therapy options. However, for those with locally advanced disease who do not have distant metastasis, locoregional control of the tumor has the potential to improve long-term outcomes. A newly developed technolog...

متن کاملIrreversible electroporation in locally advanced pancreatic cancer: A call for standardization of energy delivery.
Irreversible Electroporation (IRE) is used to treat locally advanced cancers, commonly of the pancreas, liver, kidney, and other soft tissues. Precise eligibility for IRE should be established in each individual patient by a multidisciplinary team based on comprehensive clinical, imaging, and laboratory assessment. Standardization of IRE technique and protocols is expected to improve safety, le...
متن کاملArterial complication of irreversible electroporation procedure for locally advanced pancreatic cancer
Irreversible electroporation (IRE) is a non-thermal ablation technique used especially in locally advanced pancreatic carcinomas that are considered surgically unresectable. We present the first case of acute superior mesenteric artery (SMA) occlusion secondary to pancreatic IRE procedure that has not been reported before in the literature. A 66-year-old man underwent neoadjuvant chemoradiother...
متن کاملIrreversible electroporation for locally advanced pancreatic cancer through a minimally invasive surgery supported by laparoscopic ultrasound
INTRODUCTION Pancreatic cancer is one of the most lethal cancers worldwide, with 5-years survival rate as low as 6%. The majority of pancreatic cancer patients present locally advanced or metastatic disease at diagnosis. Typically, patients affected by locally advanced pancreatic cancer (LAPC) do not undergo radical surgery but are treated with focal ablative therapies. However, a high rate of ...
