Comparison of Wet Radiofrequency Ablation with Dry Radiofrequency Ablation and Radiofrequency Ablation Using Hypertonic Saline Preinjection: Ex Vivo Bovine Liver
OBJECTIVE We wished to compare the in-vitro efficiency of wet radiofrequency(RF) ablation with the efficiency of dry RF ablation and RF ablation with preinjection of NaCl solutions using excised bovine liver. MATERIALS AND METHODS Radiofrequency was applied to excised bovine livers in a monopolar mode for 10 minutes using a 200 W generator and a perfused-cooled electrode with or without injec...
متن کاملI-46: Radiofrequency Ablation of Uterine Fibroids
Uterine fibroids are benign solid tumors that are present in the majority of women. While often asymptomatic, fibroids can result in abnormal uterine bleeding, pelvic pressure, pain, subfertility, dyspareunia and other symptoms. Submucous and intramural fibroids are most associated with heavy menstrual bleeding; subserosal fibroids are more often innocuous unless sufficiently large so as to con...
متن کاملSaline-cooled versus standard radiofrequency catheter ablation for infarct-related ventricular tachycardias.
BACKGROUND Saline cooling of the electrode during radiofrequency (RF) ablation increases lesion size in animal models. If cooled RF also increases lesion size in human infarcts, it should facilitate the termination of ventricular tachycardia (VT). METHODS AND RESULTS In 66 patients with VT due to prior infarction, 366 ablation sites, which were classified by entrainment and isolated potential...
متن کاملHepatic radiofrequency ablation.
HYPOTHESIS Hepatic radiofrequency ablation (RFA) is effective in treating patients with unresectable hepatic malignancies. DESIGN Case series of 123 patients with unresectable hepatic tumors or tumors with histological findings not traditionally treated by means of hepatic resection were considered for hepatic RFA. Median follow-up was 20 months. SETTING Tertiary referral center. PATIENTS...
متن کاملSaline-Enhanced Radiofrequency Thermal Ablation of the Lung: A Feasibility Study in Rabbits
OBJECTIVE To assess the feasibility and safety of CT-guided percutaneous transthoracic radiofrequency ablation (RFA) with saline infusion of pulmonary tissue in rabbits. MATERIALS AND METHODS Twenty-eight New Zealand White rabbits were divided into two groups: an RFA group (n=10) and a saline-enhanced RFA (SRFA) group (n=18). In the RFA group, percutaneous RFA of the lung was performed under ...
