Thermal Ablation of Lung Tumors

Techniques in Vascular and Interventional Radiology, 2007
Thermal ablation can be applied to treat any thoracic malignancy: primary lung cancers, recurrent primary lung cancers, metastatic disease, chest wall masses, and painful, bony metastases. Since the first reported use of thermal ablation for lung cancer in 2000 there has been an explosive use of the procedure, and by 2010 the number of procedures to ...

Radiofrequency ablation of renal tumors

European Radiology, 2004
Percutaneous thermal ablation is increasingly applied in the therapy of renal tumors. Various techniques are available, allowing a safe and accurate therapy of renal tumors either using hyperthermia such as radiofrequency ablation (RFA), laser-induced thermotherapy (LITT) and microwave ablation (MW) or by hypothermia (cryoablation). As thermal ablation

Cryosurgical ablation of hepatic tumors

The American Journal of Surgery, 1997
Cryosurgical ablation of hepatic tumors relies on nonspecific tissue necrosis due to freezing as well as microvascular thrombosis. Patients with selected primary and metastatic hepatic malignancies who are not candidates for surgical resection are afforded potentially curative benefit using this technique.Forty patients underwent cryosurgery for ...

Maxillofacial Restoration After Tumor Ablation

Clinics in Plastic Surgery, 1994
Communication between the surgeon and the maxillofacial prosthodontist before, during, and after surgery is the most important aspect to successful prosthetic rehabilitation of the head and neck cancer patient. Surgeons should understand the problems and limitations involved in prosthetic rehabilitation so that the patient is adequately educated during

Radiofrequency Ablation of Lung Tumors

Clinics in Chest Medicine, 2010
Lung cancer is the commonest cause of cancer-related mortality throughout the world. Only 25% of patients are diagnosed early and are candidates for surgical resection with curative intent. Many early-stage patients are medically inoperable owing to comorbidities.

Microwave ablation for liver tumors

Abdominal Radiology, 2016
Surveillance programs and widespread use of medical imaging have increased the detection of hepatic tumors. When feasible, surgical resection is widely accepted as the curative treatment of choice, but surgical morbidity and mortality has spurred the development of minimally invasive ablative technologies over the last 2 decades. Microwave ablation has

Radiofrequency Ablation of Renal Tumors

Future Oncology, 2008
Development of cross-sectional imaging has led to a significant increase in diagnosis of small renal tumors. Nephron-sparing surgery has proven to be effective in the management of these small tumors. Could radiofrequency ablation be as effective in the management of these patients, after showing promising results in a selected group of patients?

Radiofrequency ablation of pulmonary tumors

European Journal of Radiology, 2010
The development of image-guided percutaneous techniques for local tumor ablation has been one of the major advances in the treatment of solid tumors. Among these methods, radiofrequency (RF) ablation is currently established as the primary ablative modality at most institutions.

[Percutaneous tumor ablation].

Presse medicale (Paris, France : 1983), 2019
Percutaneous tumor ablation has faced a major growth in recent years with progressive expansion of clinical indications and subsequent adoption by national and international guidelines. Such techniques have become popular due to their minimally invasive profile and precise image-guided targeting resulting into a significant decrease of the procedure ...
