Radiofrequency ablation of thoracic tumours: lessons learned with ablation of 100 lesions

Purpose Our aim was to analyse the results of our first 100 radiofrequency ablation (RFA) procedures, of primary (nonsmall-cell lung cancers, NSCLC) and secondary (MTS) lung cancers to assess what lessons could be learned from our experience. Materials and methods We analysed 100 lesions (mean size...

description Purpose Our aim was to analyse the results of our first 100 radiofrequency ablation (RFA) procedures, of primary (nonsmall-cell lung cancers, NSCLC) and secondary (MTS) lung cancers to assess what lessons could be learned from our experience. Materials and methods We analysed 100 lesions (mean size 23 mm) in 81 patients (25 NSCLC/56 MTS). On the basis of the clinical–radiological evolution, we analysed complete ablation (CA) versus partial ablation (PA) at the first computed tomography (CT) scan and during the follow-up (mean 23 months), time to progression (TTP) and survival. Possible predictive factors for local effectiveness and survival were sought. Results At the first CT scan CA was obtained in 88 %; the difference between the mean diameter of lesions achieving CA and PA was significant (20 versus 38 mm; p  = 0.0001). A threshold of 30 mm ( p  = 0.0030) and the histological type (NSCLC 75 %/MTS 94 %; p  = 0.0305) were also predictive of CA. A total of 18.4 % of the CA recurred (average TTP 19 months). Survival at 1, 2 and 3 years was 84.5, 65.4 and 51.5 %, respectively. The predictors of survival at 3 years were the coexistence of other MTS ( p  = 0.0422) and a diameter
