ABSTRACT
PURPOSE:
To evaluate the safety and clinical efficacy of image-guided radiofrequency ablation (RFA) in patients exhibiting adrenal metastatic tumors (AMTs).METHODS:
The PubMed, Web of Science, and Wanfang databases were searched for relevant studies published as of November 2022, and study results were pooled for subsequent analysis. The endpoints of this meta-analysis included primary and secondary technical success, local hemorrhage, pneumothorax, hypertensive crisis, local recurrence, and 1- and 3-year overall survival (OS) rates.RESULTS:
This analysis incorporated 11 studies enrolling 351 patients that underwent RFA treatment for 373 AMTs. The pooled primary and secondary technical success, local hemorrhage, pneumothorax, hypertensive crisis, local recurrence, and 1- and 3-year OS rates in these patients were 84%, 91%, 4%, 6%, 7%, 19%, 82%, and 46%, respectively. The 1-year OS (I2 = 75.2%, p = 0.003) and 3-year OS (I2 = 81.4%, p = 0.001) endpoints were subject to significant heterogeneity. Subgroup analyses suggested that primary technical success rates were < 80% in patients with tumors exhibiting a mean diameter ≥ 4 cm. Guidance type and tumor size had no impact on a hypertensive crisis or local recurrence rates.CONCLUSIONS:
These data indicate that image-guided RFA represents a safe and effective means of treating AMTs.Palavras-chave
