The optimal treatment for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is surgical resection. However, only a small percentage of patients are operative candidates. Radiofrequency ablation (RFA) has been shown to be efficacious in treatment of unresectable HCC. We performed laparoscopic radiofrequency ablation therapy (LRAT) for HCC, which is located in touch with Gall Bladder. Despite poor hepatic reserve, postoperative recovery after LRAT was rapid. There were no intra-therapeutic complications. LRAT is a less invasive optional therapy for HCC, which is located in touch with other organs in cirrhotic patients.
