Journal ArticleDOI
Complications of microwave and radiofrequency lung ablation: personal experience and review of the literature
G. Carrafiello,Monica Mangini,Federico Fontana,A. Di Massa,A. M. Ierardi,E. Cotta,Filippo Piacentino,L. Nocchi Cardim,Carlo Pellegrino,Carlo Fugazzola +9 more
TL;DR: Pneumothorax is the most common complication of both RFA and MWA, and both techniques are both excellent choices in terms of safety and tolerance.
Journal ArticleDOI
Microwave ablation of liver metastases to overcome the limitations of radiofrequency ablation
Anna Maria Ierardi,Chiara Floridi,Federico Fontana,Claudio Chini,Francesca Giorlando,Filippo Piacentino,Luca Brunese,Graziella Pinotti,Alessandro Bacuzzi,Gianpaolo Carrafiello +9 more
TL;DR: Percutaneous MWA of liver metastases >3 cm or located near vessels (>3 mm) can be considered a valid and safe option, probably preferable to RFA, and further studies are required to confirm these encouraging initial results.
Journal ArticleDOI
Single-Antenna Microwave Ablation Under Contrast-Enhanced Ultrasound Guidance for Treatment of Small Renal Cell Carcinoma: Preliminary Experience
Gianpaolo Carrafiello,Monica Mangini,Federico Fontana,Chiara Recaldini,Filippo Piacentino,Carlo Pellegrino,Domenico Laganà,Salvatore Cuffari,Alberto Marconi,Carlo Fugazzola +9 more
TL;DR: Preliminary results support the use of MWA for the treatment of small renal tumors, which can be applied in select patients who are not candidates for surgery, as an alternative to other ablative techniques.
Journal ArticleDOI
The role of endovascular treatment of pelvic fracture bleeding in emergency settings
Anna Maria Ierardi,Filippo Piacentino,Federico Fontana,Mario Petrillo,Chiara Floridi,Alessandro Bacuzzi,Salvatore Cuffari,Wael Elabbassi,Raffaele Novario,Gianpaolo Carrafiello +9 more
TL;DR: Percutaneous embolisation of pelvic bleeding may be considered a safe, effective, and minimally invasive therapeutic option as haemodynamic stability is the first objective with traumatic haemorrhagic patient, and arterial emblisation can assume a primary role.
Journal ArticleDOI
Systematic review of minimally invasive ablation treatment for locally advanced pancreatic cancer
Anna Maria Ierardi,Natalie Lucchina,Mario Petrillo,Chiara Floridi,Filippo Piacentino,A. Bacuzzi,Paolo Fonio,Federico Fontana,Carlo Fugazzola,Luca Brunese,Gianpaolo Carrafiello +10 more
TL;DR: Modifications to the various applications, in particular combining the techniques with high-quality imaging and intra-operative approach has enabled real-time treatment monitoring and significant improvements in safety.
