Description
Background/Objectives: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) ranks as the third most prevalent cancer and is the second leading cause of cancer-related deaths globally. This study sought to evaluate microwave ablation (MWA), radiofrequency ablation (RFA), and percutaneous ethanol injection (PEI)—whether used separately or together (RFA+PEI, MWA+PEI)—for treating single HCC lesions ≤5 cm, focusing on outcomes, survival rates, complications, costs, and recurrence rates.
