Subcapsular Liver Tumors Treated with Percutaneous Radiofrequency Ablation: A Prospective Comparison with Nonsubcapsular Liver Tumors for Safety and Effectiveness

Abstract

The difference in major complication rate between the subcapsular and nonsubcapsular liver tumors was not significant. The safety of RF ablation of subcapsular tumors seems acceptable, and the effectiveness is comparable to that of RF ablation of nonsubcapsular tumors.
