Radiofrequency ablation for recurrent hepatocellular carcinoma: 10-year outcomes of local tumor progression vs intrahepatic distant recurrence
Long-term outcomes of RFA for LTP vs IDR of hepatocellular carcinoma remain unclear. LTP has worse PFS; ≥ 3 repeat LTP significantly worsens OS. LTP tends to recur after RFA, requiring close follow-up; ≥ 3 repeat LTPs need alternative local treatment.
