What are the side effects of radiofrequency ablation for liver cancer? These are

Liver cancer, a malignant tumor, is a very scary disease for many people. Currently, there are many treatment options for liver cancer. For patients with early liver cancer, surgery can be used to relieve the pain of the disease, but surgery does not necessarily cure the disease quickly. Radiofrequency ablation is one of the treatment methods.

Radiofrequency ablation technology is to use percutaneous puncture under the guidance of CT and color ultrasound to accurately insert the multipolar mother-and-child needle ablation electrode into the tumor site, and use radio frequency waves to heat the tumor tissue to 95°C, causing local high temperature in the tumor tissue, complete necrosis, and gradual absorption, disappearance, and melting.

It is targeted and minimally invasive, with precise and controllable image monitoring and few side effects. It can achieve a radical effect in the treatment of early lung cancer, liver cancer, kidney cancer and other solid tumors.

Many patients are already in the late stage when they are first diagnosed. Surgery is not suitable for patients with large tumors or multiple metastases. Targeted therapy can be used for patients with advanced liver cancer who are ineffective with chemotherapy. It has obvious effects in the short term but is expensive and prone to drug resistance. There is a Chinese medicine that is an important new achievement in anti-tumor research in recent years. Its high efficiency and non-toxicity in treating liver cancer make up for the shortcomings of some previous drugs and treatments.

After radiofrequency ablation, the patient must rest in bed as ordered by the doctor. A sandbag should be placed at the venous puncture site for 6 hours, and a sandbag should be placed at the arterial puncture site for 8-12 hours. The affected limb should be restrained and immobilized, and attention should be paid to observe for bleeding.
