微波消融术在肺癌中的应用

Application of Microwave Ablation for Lung Cancer

微波消融技术是介入放射学中热消融疗法的一种,它利用微波产生热效应导致实体瘤内组织坏死。因其杀伤目标组织效果确切、安全性高、热效率高等,成为癌症微创治疗手段且常用于非手术治疗患者及实体瘤的姑息治疗。微波消融技术能准确、高效消灭周围型肺癌的癌变部位。对于不能根治的中央型肺癌,也能有效缓解气道堵塞、阻塞性肺炎、肺不张、呼吸困难等症状。本文就微波消融术在肺癌中的应用进行综述。

Microwave ablation（MWA）, a form of thermal ablation in interventional radiology, uses electromagnetic waves to produce tissue-heating effects which generating tissue necrosis within solid tumors. Due to its exact effect, safety, high thermal efficiency, MWA became a minimally invasive surgery for lung cancer and a palliative treatment in patients who are nonsurgical candidate and solid tumors. MWA is accurate and effective for peripheral lung cancer and can effectively relieve airway obstruction, obstructive symptoms of pneumonia, atelectasis, breathing difficulties for central lung cancer. This review focuses on the application of MWA in the treatment of lung cancer.
