Abstract:
Objective To investigate the efficiency and prognostic factors for the patients with hepatocel-lular carcinoma (HCC) at unresectable early stage when treated with percutaneous microwave ablation. Methods From January 2007 to January 2010 , 105 cases of at unresectable early stage were treated with percutaneous microwave ablation. Complete response rate, major complication rate, overall survival rates, disease-free survival rate were observed and prognostic risk factors were analyzed. Results The complete response rate was 95.7%. The major complication ratewas 3.8%. The 1-, 3-, and 5-year overall survival rates were 97.1%, 66.7%, 46.7%, and the corresponding disease-free survival rates were 82.9%, 48.6%, 31.4%, respectively. Age > 65 year and tumor size > 3 cm were independent risks for disease-free survival. Age > 65 year and recurrence were independent risks for overall survival. Conclusions Percutaneous microwave ablation is a safe and efficient ther-apy for HCC at unresectable early stage.
