Zusammenfassung

Purpose: Aim of the present study was to evaluate effectiveness of US-guided percutaneous laser thermal ablation (LTA) in the treatment of HCC nodules >/=4cm and predictive factors for complete necrosis Methods and Materials: 86 HCC nodules (mean diameter 23.59mm; range 8–40mm) in 60 cirrhotic patients (mean age 68.3 yr; 36 males; 57 HCV+; 51 Child A and 9 Child B) were selected for LTA between January 2001 and December 2004. 51 nodules were newly diagnosed, 14 had been previously treated (PEI and/or TACE), and 19 represented intra (8 cases) or extra nodular (11 cases) relapses during follow-up after treatment.…
