Small and Steatotic Hepatocellular Carcinoma

We performed 412 percutaneous thermoablations on 238 patients for HCC between January 2015 and November 2019. All thermoablation procedures were performed percutaneously under ultrasound or CT guidance, with ou without artificial pneumothorax or ascites, with ou without lipiodol marked. Purposes: Tumor response upon mRECIST criteria Progression-free survival Overall survival Local tumor progression Distent liver progression Prognostic factors

Small and Steatotic Hepatocellular Carcinoma : a Distinctive Radiological Variant With Improved Outcome After Percutenous Ablation

Percutaneous thermoablation in an effective local curative treatment in patients with cirrhosis and HCC smaller than 3 cm in diameter (BCLC 0-A). Around 30% of HCC patients referred for percutaneous ablation were regarded as non-feasible because of a difficult-at risk location or undetectable nodules. We used percutaneous thermoablation to treat HCC on high risk locations (subcapsular or liver dome) with or without lipiodol marked (for undetectable HCC). No clinical study has been published so far to compare percutaneous thermoablation of HCC on liver dome CT guided with artificial pneumothorax and lipiodol marked, and percutaneous thermoablation of HCC guided by ultrasonography (non subcapsular, distent form diaphragm). This retrospective study evaluate the overall survival, the local tumor progression or distant liver progression after percutaneous ablation for HCC and determine prognostic factors.
