目的:探讨对比增强超声(CEUS)在肝脏残留复发性恶性肿瘤进行射频消融(RFA)治疗的临床应用。方法517例原发性肝癌(HCC)、肝转移癌患者经各种治疗后残留或局部复发拟行RFA治疗,共619个病灶为研究对象。复发HCC 281例290灶,病灶大小平均(3.4±1.5)cm,其中CEUS引导治疗组150例154灶,常规超声引导组131例136灶。另复发肝转移癌236例329灶,病灶大小平均(3.1±1.3)cm,其中CEUS引导治疗组152例198灶,常规超声引导组84例131灶。结果复发HCC CEUS组与常规组治疗结果比较:1个月肿瘤灭活率分别为96.1%和89.7%(P =0.032);肿瘤局部复发率各为9.7%和17.6%(P=0.049);两组间差异均有统计学意义。复发肝转移癌CEUS组与常规组治疗结果比较:1个月肿瘤灭活率88.4%和87.0%(P=0.712);肿瘤局部复发率16.7%和23.7%(P=0.117),两组间差异均无统计学意义。结论 CEUS 指导RFA治疗复发HCC,可有效提高早期灭活率,降低局部复发。
Objective To discuss the clinical application of contrast enhanced ultrasonography (CEUS) in radiofrequency ablation (RFA) treatment for residual and recurrent hepatic neoplasms. Methods A total of 517 cases of primary hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) or hepatic metastases with residual or recurrent hepatic neoplasms after different kinds of treatment were treated with RFA. A total of 619 lesions were used as study subjects. The average size of the 290 lesions detected in 281 patients with recurrent HCC was (3.4 ± 1.5) cm. CEUS-guided RFA group included 150 cases (154 lesions in total), while conventional US-guided RFA group included 131 cases (136 lesions in total). A total of 329 lesions were detected in 236 cases with recurrent hepatic metastases, and the mean size of the lesions was (3.1 ± 1.3) cm, of which CEUS-guided RFA group included 152 cases (198 lesions in total) and conventional US-guided RFA group included 84 cases (131 lesions in total). Results In recurrent HCC, the one-month tumor necrosis rate of CEUS group and conventional US group was 96.1% and 89.7% respectively (P = 0.032), and the local recurrence rate was 9.7% and 17.6% respectively (P = 0.049). The differences between the two groups were statistically significant. In recurrent hepatic metastases , the one-month tumor necrosis rate of CEUS group and conventional US group was 88.4% and 87.0% respectively (P = 0.712), and the local recurrence rate was 16.7% and 23.7%respectively (P = 0.117). No significant differences existed between the two groups. Conclusion For the treatment of recurrent HCC, CEUS-guided radiofrequency ablation can effectively improve the early necrosis rate and decrease local recurrence rate.
