Abstract:
A 74-year-old male with an inoperable, large (6 cm in diameter) primary hepatocellular carcinoma of the liver was successfully treated using a novel microwave ablating system. Using a single applicator, the tumour was treated at 150 W for 4 minutes. An ablation zone 8 cm in diameter was achieved, which gradually shrunk to form scar tissue that remained unchanged without tumour recurrence for 2 years.
