Objectives Reported rates of major complications and mortality of radiofrequency ablation
(RFA), microwave ablation (MWA) and percutaneous ethanol injection (PEI) for the treatment …

Abstract Background Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy (SBRT) is a non-invasive ablative
treatment for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). This report aimed to address the limited …

A plasma needle using a dielectric barrier discharge reactor at atmospheric pressure with a
funnel-shaped nozzle was developed. The preliminary characteristics of the plume and …

Background Although ablation therapy has been accepted as a promising and safe
technique for treatment of unrespectable hepatic tumors, investigation of its complications …

Background Whether percutaneous radiofrequency ablation (PRFA) is as effective as repeat
hepatectomy for recurrent small hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in the long-term remains …

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is an increasingly common disease with dismal long-term
survival. Percutaneous ablation has gained popularity as a minimally invasive, potentially …

Purpose To compare the long-term outcomes of repeated hepatic resection and
radiofrequency (RF) ablation for recurrent hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) by using …

Background Primary clear cell carcinoma of the liver (PCCCL) is an uncommon variant of
hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). The prognostic factors influencing its recurrence and …

Background Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) often recurs after curative resection, and thus
the optimal treatment strategy to treat recurrences remains uncertain. We analyzed the …

Radiofrequency ablation (RFA) has gained a wide acceptance as a first-line therapeutic
option for small hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). For very early-stage HCC, despite a higher …
