Lung (13 ± 3.5 mm)
Soft tissue (9.8 ± 1.0 mm)

Surgery
Indications for RFA
2-3 cm 4 cm
Small and pauci nodular tumors that fulfill criteria for lung
metastasectomy but cannot tolerate surgery
Complete ablation possible
Control of the primary tumor obtained or obtainable
No Extra Pulmonary Disease (imaging work-up)
New mets in a previously operated lung
Local recurrence at the site of surgery
Surgical candidates with small tumor(s) requiring large resection
ex :3 small mets in three different lobes
Biological unfavorable situation (short Disease Free Interval)
Metastases larger than 4 cm
Metastases close to the hilum large vessels
www.nice.org.uk :
• Role relative to other treatment not clear (multi-disciplinary meeting, research)
• RFA may be used when surgery is not appropriate for patients
with a small number of lung metastases
Conclusion
• RF is safe and well tolerated in the treatment of small lung metastases
• Safety margins are key to obtain complete tumor destruction
• RF provide 70% survival at 3 years in best series
• RF provide survival close to historical surgical series
Comparative studies are needed
• New ablation technologies might improve local efficacy for larger tumors
or tumors close to the hilum
