“…Intrinsic tissue architecture is predominantly preserved during cryoablation, which minimizes irreversible damage to nontarget ablated tissue, enhancing the safety profile of this procedure [4] . Preservation of the molecular structure of tumor antigens as well as disruption of the tumor cell plasma membrane results in 13-20% of dendritic cells in the draining lymph nodes presenting tumor antigen and inducing a clonal T-cell proliferation compared to 7% in radiofrequency ablation [5] .…”

Background: Neuroendocrine malignancy is indolent, yet relentless in its propensity to metastasize to the liver, where it may cause bizarre paraneoplastic syndromes. The pathophysiologic mechanism behind this predilection for hepatic metastasis is twofold: the portal venous system drains the most likely primary sites for neuroendocrine tumors, and the relatively immunosuppressed environment within the hepatic parenchyma is permissive for tumor growth. The standard of care for patients with metastatic neuroendocrine tumor is surgical resection of at least 90% of the tumor burden. Methods: This report describes CT-guided percutaneous cryoablation of an inoperable mesenteric carcinoid tumor that had previously demonstrated hepatic metastases utilizing hydrodissection to safely and effectively prevent further metastasis while priming the immune system to eradicate this malignancy systemically. Results: CT-guided percutaneous cryoablation is minimally invasive, has intrinsic analgesic properties, and may contribute to sensitization of the immune system against tumor antigens. Conclusion: Percutaneous cryoablation with hydrodissection can be used to target intraabdominal malignancy in poor surgical candidates. This procedure is safe, effective, and minimally invasive.

“…Although not used in our study, articular irrigation with cold fluid can be used as a protective mechanism for the articular cartilage [26]. Recently, Vikinqstad et al [32] compared the acute histologic and biomechanical effect of RFA and CWA on periarticular structures in a swine model; authors concluded that as far as articular cartilage is concerned, neither RF ablation nor CWA resulted in significant acute architectural changes although long-term outcomes are currently unknown. In our experience, apart from bone integrity, the approach towards the nidus of the osteoid osteoma also plays a significant role.…”

“…20 Lastly, there is emerging evidence that cryoablation provides an excellent scaffold for new bone growth, osteoinductive properties for normal bone regrowth, and an optimal safety profile for surrounding cartilage, ligaments, and tendons. 21,22 Criteria for percutaneous thermal ablation are typically very patient-specific. Patient age, mobility status, and bowel/bladder continence all influence if and where (anatomically) thermal ablation can be performed.…”

As palliative care continues to be an area of increasing emphasis in pediatric oncology programs, it is important to raise awareness about minimally invasive, image‐guided procedures that can supplement more conventional palliative interventions, such as systemic analgesics, external beam radiation, and locoregional anesthesia. These procedures, when performed for appropriately selected patients, can often facilitate discharge from an inpatient facility, and help patients meet their end‐of‐life goals. This article specifically discusses three palliative procedures performed by interventional radiologists that can assist pediatric palliative care teams in: (a) percutaneous thermal ablation of painful bone metastases, (b) cryoneurolysis, and (c) tunneled drainage catheter placement for malignant pleural effusions and ascites.
