Description
Daniel Ong, Uei Pua, and Keiji Hanada report sequential electric ablation for advanced pancreatic cancer, in a case report from 2023. Locally advanced pancreatic cancer has a poor outlook, and drug plus radiation care has long been standard. Irreversible electroporation is a non thermal ablation method that may extend survival for some patients.
One patient had proven cancer of the pancreatic head area with spread into the duodenum. Drug and radiation care left the disease stable but not shrinking. Surgeons then applied ablation during open surgery with added bypass steps. A second ablation through the skin followed more than a year later. Later drug care joined the plan, the tumour shrank clearly, and survival passed four years.
