Abstract
Objective. Evaluating the respiratory compromise of primary liver tumor treatment by high frequency waves in spatients with normal lung function at Thanh Nhan Hospital. Subjects and methods. Retrospective descriptive case-study of multi-location and large-size primary liver cancer treated with high-frequency multi-electrode radiofrequency at Thanh Nhan hospital from January 2016 to December 2018. Results. 30 cases, the study group had 22 cases of endoscopic surgery, 08 cases of RFA matching through ultrasound, 08 cases of intervention in combination. 100% of the burning area covered the entire tumor on CT-scanner. The rate of complications was 13.3%. There were 2/30 cases recurring after 6 months. Average time of surviving: 12.9 ± 5.3 months. Conclusion. Heat burning with high-frequency waves is a feasible method for cases of cancer patients without the possibility of surgery. It has been increasingly applied in our country for cancer treatment of liver cells from provincial to central hospitals.
