 PAGE \* MERGEFORMAT 7 A multi-polar radiofrequency ablation treatment of prostate cancer a feasibility study Author: Ma Bao Jie, Xu Yong, Yuan Jie Niu, Cheong Ji-wu, ZHANG Shu-min, Ma Xiang [Keywords:] radio-frequency ablation of prostate cancer Transrectal ultrasound (TRUS) guided transperineal radiofrequency ablation of the prostate carcinoma (Department of Urology, Second Affiliated Hospital of Tianjin Medical University, Tianjin 300211, China) ABSTRACT: Objective To evaluate the feasibility and application of radiofrequency ablation in the treatment of prostate carcinoma. Methods Under TRUS guidance transperineal radiofrequency ablation of the prostate was performed on 12 patients with late prostate carcinoma. Results The whole courses and the recovery periods were uneventful. In the specimen of RRP of one patient, within the ablation area, tumor cells were completely destroyed. Conclusion As a minimally invasive method, transrectal ultrasound guided transperineal radiofrequency ablation of the prostate is safe and feasible in the treatment of prostate carcinoma. KEY WORDS: prostate carcinoma; radiofrequency ablation; TRUS guided Abstract: Objective To study the radio-frequency ablation (RFA) treatment of prostate cancer in principle, the feasibility of security. Methods of transrectal ultrasound (TRUS) guided transperineal puncture of 12 patients with advanced prostate cancer, prostate cancer, radiofrequency ablation. Results All 12 patients with smooth and safe implementation of radiofrequency ablation, in the case of radical resection of the prostate cancer specimens of visible tumor ablation zone completely destroyed. Conclusion TRUS-guided transperineal puncture and radiofrequency ablation of prostate cancer from the principles and is technically feasible and can be used as minimally invasive treatment of prostate cancer tumors by means of.
