Abstract:
Objective To investigate the efficacy and safety of combination of transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE)and percutaneous radiofrequency ablation (RFA)in treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma (PHC).Methods 70 cases of PHC were divided into combined group (TACE +RFA,n =37) and control group (only TACE,n =33).Patients were followed up for1 to 2 years,and the therapeutic effects and side effects were compared between the two groups.Results The patients with tumor completely necrosis and AFP level lower than >50% in combined group were significantly more than those in control group (P <0.05);the half of year,one year and two years survival rate in combined group were greatly higher than those of control group;no severe side effect was observed in two groups.Conclusions TACE+RFA is effective and safe in treatment of PHC of more than 5 cm in diameter.
