ABSTRACT
This meta-analytical study compared the efficacy of cryoablation and radiofrequency ablation (RFA) in treating non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). We searched PubMed, Cochrane, Embase, and Web of Science™ for all relevant articles published until April 2022 that compared the efficacy of RFA and cryoablation in treating NSCLC. We used the Cochrane evaluation tool to assess the risk of bias. The fixed- or random-effects models were used, when appropriate. The primary outcome was a 3-year disease-free survival, whereas recurrence rate and complication rates were secondary outcomes. There were 340 patients divided across the seven studies we included in our meta-analysis. Based on the continuous-type variable analysis, cryoablation was superior to RFA in terms of 3-year disease-free survival (P = 0.003) and complication (P ï¼ 0.00001) rates. Similarly, significant reductions in cryoablation were found for recurrence rates (P = 0.05) compared with RFA. Overall, cryoablation was superior to RFA in terms of prognosis and lifespan, regardless of whether systemic metastases occurred in non-small cell lung cancer.
