Summary

Radiofrequency ablation has achieved impressive results in the treatment of unresectable primary and metastatic liver cancer. Animal studies have demonstrated that radiofrequency can fully ablate lung tumors in animal models. We set up a prospective study to evaluate the local efficacy of radiofrequency ablation of lung neoplasms. The aim of the study is to prospectively evaluate local efficacy with a minimal follow-up of one year, tolerance, lung disease-free survival and survival after radiofrequency ablation of lung tumors (primary lung cancer or lung metastases).
