Hepatic radiofrequency under laparoscopy in Naama

Oncologist

The indication of this technique is based on criteria related to the tumor (size <3cm and location), to the state of the non-tumoral liver (cirrhosis) and to the patient himself (age, general condition, other pathologies). It is an alternative to conventional hepatectomy surgery, which consists of destroying the tumor by heat by passing an electromagnetic current of 500 hz through an electrode. This electrode is placed into the tumor by pricking through the liver and guided by the ultrasound.
