Core Tip |
Endoscopic ultrasound-guided radiofrequency ablation (EUS-RFA) is emerging as a complementary therapeutic approach for pancreatic solid masses. However, results of published data are difficult to interpret because of a retrospective design and small sample size. Pooling results across 14 published experiences, the technical success rate was 99.0% among over 150 ablations, with an overall adverse event (AE) rate of 8.0%. Excluding mild AEs, the pooled rate of serious AEs was 1.0%, with no mortality. The present pooled analysis confirms the feasibility and safety of EUS-RFA. |
