Abstract:
:Radiofrequency ablation (RFA) has shown to be a reasonable alternative for the treatment of hepatic tumors and metastases although multiple limitations remain. Cooling effects due to larger vessels can prevent complete coverage and may lead to early tumor relapse. This preliminary in vivo pig study combines the use of multipolar RFA with three applicators (six electrodes) and interrupted liver perfusion using Pringle's maneuver to overcome the most serious limitations. Furthermore, immediate detection of incomplete RFA is important to revise ablation. We used contrast enhanced computed tomography (CECT) to evaluate post ablation results in comparison to macroscopic images in healthy pig liver. We found significantly (p = 0.001) larger ablation zones and no affection by larger vessels with interrupted liver perfusion. This allows effective RFA for larger tumors. Immediate postinterventional CECT provided comparable results (r = 0.985) to macroscopic evaluation.
