Abstract:
Breast cancer is the most common malignant disease in women,it seriously threatens women's physical and mental health.Traditional surgical resection is the treatment of first choice.With the innovation of surgical treatment concept and the continuous development of medical technology,the thermal ablation technology,as a kind of local precision treatment,has gradually attracted the attention and application in medical field.Among thermal ablation techniques,micro wave ablation(MW A)is an emerging thermal ablation technology used in the treatment of breast cancer.Compared with traditional surgery,MW A has the advantages of less trauma,quick recovery,less complications,satisfactory cosmetic effect,and maximum protection of patient's organ functions.Moreover,some studies have revealed that MWA can motivate anti-tumor immune response,therefore,it is expected that MW A combined with immunotherapy may become a new therapeutic regimen.This article aims to make a detailed review about the latest research progress in MWA for the treatment of breast cancer.
