Tumor Ablation: Common Modalities and General Practices

Lip Reconstruction after Tumor Ablation

Approximately 25% of all oral cavity carcinomas involve the lips, and the primary management of these lesions is complete surgical resection. Loss of tissue in the lips after resection is treated with a variety of techniques, depending on the extension and location of the defect. Here we review highly accepted techniques of lip reconstruction and some of new trials with significant clinical ...

Percutaneous Modalities for Atrial Fibrillation Ablation

Pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) is now accepted as a cornerstone modality for the treatment of paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (PAF) ablation (1). The technique has been started with focal pulmonary vein (PV) ablation of AF triggers or ostial isolation of the PVs (2-5). Nowadays, wide circumferential ablation of the PV antrum is the preferred approach (6). The potential role of different non-PV t...

Microwave Tumor Ablation of Vertebral Bone Metastasis: A Case Report

Introduction: Thermal ablation by microwave (MWA) has proven efficacy in treatment of primary and metastatic cancers. Soft tissue tumors could be ablated completely using MWA. However, bony tissue metastasis particularly spinal vertebral metastasis ablation has not reported yet. Case presentation: A 50 year old male patient with primary diagnosed colon cancer undergone surgical resection of ...
