Abstract:
Objective To investigate the effectiveness and safety of TACE combined with radiofrequency ablation (RFA) and simple RFA in the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) with Meta-analysis.Methods The randomized controlled trials comparing of TACE combined with RFA and simple RFA in the treatment of HCC from January 2000 to November 2016 in Chinese and English literatures were included.Results A total of 12 articles were enrolled in this study.Meta-analyses showed that the 1-year,3-year overall survival rate and 1-year,3-year recurrence-free survival rate of TACE combined with RFA group were better than those of simple RFA group (all P＜0.05).And there was no significant difference between TACE combined with RFA group and simple RFA group in 5-year overall survival rate (P =0.07).There was no significant difference of the 1-year,3-year overall survival and 1-year and 3-year recurrence-free survival rate between TACE combined with RFA group and simple RFA group for tumor with maximum diameter ＜3 cm in HCC (all P＞ 0.05).There was no significant difference in the incidence of serious complication in both two groups (P=0.82).Conclusion The short-term and mid-term efficacy in the treatment of HCC using TACE combined with RFA is better than those using simple RFA,while the long-term efficacy of two kinds of therapy have no significant differences.
