Abstract:
Radiofrequency ablation (RFA) is increasingly used in the treatment of liver tumors,and its therapeutic role is gradually and widely accepted.Adequate and comprehensive knowledge on the complications arising from RFA treatment of liver tumors is of great importance to further promote and standardize its safe application.In this paper,a new classification on complications arising from RFA treatment for liver tumors was proposed.Based on the mechanisms of these complications,their management and preventive strategies were discussed.
