We studied the rates of mortality, morbidity, and recurrence and recorded overall and disease-free survival. Methods - All patients aged over 18 years with histologically proven malignant liver disease inaccessible to surgical treatment (one to four tumor localizations) were eligible for inclusion in the study. Child-Pugh score > B9, platelets count ≤ 50× 103/mm3, prothrombin index ≤ 50% and pregnancy were exclusion factors. Results - Between July 2001 and June 2004, 51 patients (13 women, 38 men, mean age 66 ± 9 years) were included and underwent 61 radiofrequency thermal ablation procedures for 82 hepatic lesions: hepatocarcinoma (N = 44), cholangiocarcinoma (N = 1), metastasic tumors (N = 37). Hospital morbidity and mortality were 11.5% and 2% respectively. Recurrence rate at 3 years was 20.6% . In multivariate analysis, only tumor size > 3 cm was correlated significantly with recurrence (P = 0.03). Actuarial 1- , 2- and 3- year survival rates in the hepatocarcinoma group (N = 31) were 84.7% , 57.7% and 34.6% respectively. Actuarial 1- , 2- and 3- year survival rates in the metastasis from colorectal adenocarcinoma group (N = 14) were 90% , 54% and 54% respectively (P = 0.72). Conclusion - Radiofrequency thermal ablation is an effective treatment for hepatic tumors measuring less than 3 cm. There is a low risk of complications and open surgery can be associated. However in the Absence of randomized studies comparing radiofrequency and surgery, respective indications cannot be defined in detail.展开更多
