主 题:Transarterial chemoembolization radiofrequency ablation hepatocellular carcinoma meta-analysis
摘 要:Aim:This meta-analysis was designed to compare the effectiveness of the combination of transarterial chemoembolization(TACE)and radiofrequency ablation(RFA)*** of TACE alone in hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC)tumors larger than 5 ***:PUBMED,CNKI,and CBM were searched for all related randomized controlled trials(RCTs)up until October 22,*** studies were identified that compared TACE with *** alone for HCC *** response rate,the proportion of patients with either complete or partial shrinkage of tumors,and survival rate were the major evaluation ***:Meta-analysis data revealed that TACE with RFA showed significantly better tumor response rate(risk ratio(RR)=1.452,95%confidence interval(CI):1.308-1.610,P0.001)and 1-year overall survival rate(RR=1.412,95%CI:1.249-1.596,P0.001)than that of TACE alone ***:The data of our study indicates that TACE combined with RFA in the treatment of HCC larger than 5 cm is an effective comprehensive interventional therapy.
