Abstract

Radiofrequency ablation (RFA) has been widely used as a therapeutic method for hepatocellular carcinoma. RFA has been also used for metastatic liver cancer to reduce tumor mass. Here, we describe the result of RFA therapy for metastatic liver cancer in our institution. As a result, RFA is feasible in the majority of the metastatic liver cancer cases who cannot be treated by surgical resection. In the near future, RFA may be one of the important options for the treatment of metastatic liver cancer in the near future.
