Interventional oncological treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC)- A single-center long-term evaluation of thermoablation techniques like LITT, MWA, and TACE in a multimodal application over 26 years

Thomas J. Vogl et al.

Summary: The purpose of this retrospective study is to evaluate the development and technological progress in local oncological treatments of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) using ablation techniques such as laser interstitial thermal therapy (LITT), microwave ablation (MWA), and trans-arterial chemoembolization (TACE). The study found that treatments with MWA resulted in the best median survival rates, followed by MWA + TACE in combination. Survival rates of MWA only were significantly higher compared to LITT, LITT + TACE, and TACE monotherapy.

Temperature control and intermittent time-set protocol optimization for minimizing tissue carbonization in microwave ablation

Xiaofei Jin et al.

Summary: This paper aimed to deliver appropriate thermal dose for effective ablations while preventing tissue carbonization by optimizing the treatment protocol during microwave ablation with the set combinations of temperature control and pulsed microwave energy delivery. The results showed that temperature control during microwave ablation resulted in effective coagulative necrosis while preventing tissue carbonization. The study also developed a strategy to reduce tissue carbonization by modulating the pulsing mode and intermittent time.

Role of saline concentration during saline-infused radiofrequency ablation: Observation of secondary Joule heating along the saline-tissue interface

Antony S. K. Kho et al.

Summary: Infusion of saline prior to radiofrequency ablation can enlarge the thermal coagulation zone, as the abundance of ions in saline increases electrical conductivity in the tissue. However, the exact role of saline concentration on the coagulation zone remains unclear, with conflicting research findings.

Small single perivascular hepatocellular carcinoma: comparisons of radiofrequency ablation and microwave ablation by using propensity score analysis

Chao An et al.

Summary: In patients with small single perivascular hepatocellular carcinoma, microwave ablation exhibited better tumor control than radiofrequency ablation, with a significantly higher local tumor progression rate observed in the radiofrequency ablation group. Additionally, there was a significant interaction effect of ablation modality and type of peritumoral vessel on local tumor progression, with differences observed in periportal HCC but not perivenous HCC.

Half-normal saline versus normal saline for irrigation of open-irrigated radiofrequency catheters in atrial fibrillation ablation

Carola Gianni et al.

Summary: This study compares the effects of using half-normal saline and normal saline as an irrigant for ablation catheters in patients undergoing AF ablation. The results show that using half-normal saline significantly shortens RF times, but does not significantly affect the long-term recurrence of atrial arrhythmias.

Masakazu Yamamoto et al.

Summary: The Japanese Society of Hepato-Biliary-Pancreatic Surgery developed clinical practice guidelines for the management of metastatic liver tumors, categorizing eight primary sites into five groups. Fourteen clinical questions were formulated, with only one having a strong recommendation and 13 having weak recommendations. The guidelines included a flowchart summarizing the indications for hepatectomy and systemic therapy.
