RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: The objective of the study is to compare radiofrequency (RF) effects on fresh placentae with varying levels of sustained time (Ts) and degrees of target temperature (°t). METHOD: A total of 108 pieces of fresh placentae were coagulated with a 2-cm RF needle at 60 W in an organ bath. The vertical and horizontal diameters (Vd, Hd) of tissue coagulation visualized by ultrasound were measured. The impacts of 12 different Ts-°t combinations on the ablation size ascertained on pathological examination (Vdp , Hdp ) were compared using 2-way ANOVA. The agreement between sonographic and pathological findings was assessed using Bland-Altman analysis. RESULTS: Considerable changes in the Vdp and Hdp were associated with increasing the Ts and °t. The impact of RF on tissue coagulation was greatest when the °t was set at 100°C, with further destruction as the Ts progressed to 7 minutes of exposure. The ablation size estimated by ultrasound exhibited an overestimation by an average of 5.65% and 21.02% for Vd and Hd, respectively. CONCLUSION: A prolonged Ts at a higher °t contributes to progressive placental tissue destruction by RF, with maximum destruction at 100°C for 7 minutes in an ex vivo nonperfused placenta. Tissue injury that is apparent on ultrasound may extend beyond pathological damage.
