| الوصف: | The aim of this study was to evaluate the feasibility of MRguided laser-induced thermotherapy �LITT) for treatment of recurrent extrahepatic abdominal tumors. In 11 patients �6 women and 5 men; mean age 53 years, age range 29±67 years) with 14 lesions the following tumors were treated in this study: paravertebral recurrence of hypernephroma �n = 1); recurrence of uterus carcinoma �n = 1); recurrence of chondrosarcoma of the pubic bone �n = 1); presacral recurrence of rectal carcinoma �n = 1); recurrent anal cancer �n = 1); metastases in the abdominal wall �n = 1); and lymph node metastases from colorectal cancer �n = 8). A total of 27 laser applications were performed. A fast low-angle shot 2D sequence �TR/TE/flip angle = 102 ms/8 ms/70) was used for nearly real-time monitoring during treatment. All patients had no other treatment option. Seventeen LITT sessions were performed using a conventional laser system with a mean laser power of 5.2 W �range 4.5±5.7 W), and 10 LITT session were performed using a power laser system with a mean laser power of 28.0 W. In 10 lesions total destruction could be achieved. In the remaining recurrent tumors, significant reduction of tumor volume by 60±80 % was obtained. All patients tolerated the procedure well under local anesthesia. No complications occurred during treatment. Laserinduced thermotherapy is a practicable, minimally invasive, well-tolerated technique that can produce large areas of necrosis within recurrent tumors, substantially reducing active tumor volume if not resulting in outright destruction of tumor. |
