Core Tip |
Cholangiocarcinoma and pancreatic cancer are typically diagnosed at a late stage with poor prognosis. These conditions often cause biliary obstruction, which can be targeted by endoluminal radiofrequency ablation. Induced heat results in coagulative necrosis and the release of tumour antigens, in turn activating the systemic immune response. This review presents the available evidence for biliary radiofreqency ablation efficiency and safety. Although some of the data indicate positive impacts on survival and stent patency, further studies incorporating better defined patient populations and randomised settings are needed to confirm these promising results. |
