Abstract
|
|
|
In the treatment of small hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), percutaneous ultrasound guided radiofrequency ablation (RFA) is a proven therapy and is currently performed in clinical practice. However, depending on the location of the HCC, percutaneous RFA may not be possible. In these cases, intraoperative RFA can be implemented, but it is rarely performed by surgeons. Since laparoscopic intraoperative RFA is less invasive, it is increasingly used in small HCCs.
