The efficacy of percutaneous microwave ablation for limited liver metastases of nasopharyngeal carcinoma
Background and purpose: Since the number and tumor size of localized liver metastases can be controlled
local minimally invasive treatment can improve the survival of patients. Hence
microwave ablation has become an important treatment method for liver metastases. This study was to investigate the value of percutaneous microwave ablation in the treatment of tumor metastases. Methods: From Sep. 2011 to Oct. 2014
26 advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma patients with post-chemotherapy consolidation
liver metastases were collected. All the patients with the number of tumor lesions less than 3
diameter less than 5 cm
no other distant metastases was excluded. The ultrasound-guided percutaneous microwave ablation was used for 26 patients. Finally
43 ablations were completed followed by liver function test
enhanced CT and MRI diagnosis 1 month later. mRECIST criteria was used to evaluate the efficacy of cancer treatment. Progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) were calculated. Results: Twenty-six cases of a total of 53 lesions
including complete ablation (CA) 20 patients (20/26
77.0%)
partial ablation (PA) 3 patients (3/26
11.5%). The overall efficiency was 88.5% (CA + PA) with no serious complications. 6 months
1-
2-year survival rates of 26 patients were 96.1%
65.3% and 23.0%. PFS was 11.4 months. The median survival time (MST) was 11.9 months
while OS was 23.7 months. Conclusion: Percutaneous microwave ablation for limited liver metastases of nasopharyngeal carcinoma is a minimally invasive
