Lung Cancer, Microwave Ablation
Conditions
Keywords
microwave ablation, lung cancer, ground glass nodules
Brief summary
GGO was commonly observed recently.Radiofrequency ablation has been widely applied in the treatment of patients with GGO. No study had explored the microwave ablation in the treatment of GGO.
Detailed description
GGO was common with the development of image. Treatments of GGO include radical surgery and irradiation. For patients who were poor candidate of surgery, image guided thermal ablation could be an alternative.Radiofrequency ablation has been widely applied in the treatment of eary-stage non small cell lung cancer and those patients with GGO. However, up to date, no study had explored the microwave ablation in the treatment of GGO.
Interventions
Patients with pathology verified GGO were treated with MWA.
