“…Minimal morbidity, short recovery time, and repeatability in the same organ are major advantages of these techniques. [72][73][74] Transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) consists of the injection of an emulsion of lipiodol (Guerbet, Aulnay sous Bois, France) and chemotherapy directly into the liver arterial supply. In one retrospective study using platinum-based TACE as second-line treatment, 75 an 83% rate of liver tumor control was reported at 3 months, and this was observed especially in patients with small metastases (3 cm).…”

Recent developments in the treatment of adrenocortical carcinoma (ACC) include diagnostic and prognostic risk stratification algorithms, increasing evidence of the impact of historical therapies on overall survival, and emerging targets from integrated epigenomic and genomic analyses. Advances include proper clinical and molecular characterization of all patients with ACC, standardization of proliferative index analyses, referral of these patients to large cancer referral centers at the time of first surgery, and development of new trials in patients with well-characterized ACC. Networking and progress in the molecular characterization of ACC constitute the basis for significant future therapeutic breakthroughs.

“…6 Thirty-eight lesions required additional cementoplasty. Definition of "curative treatment" was composite as they divided their population in two groups: in the first one, the goal was to achieve complete treatment of all bone metastases; in the second one, the goal was to prevent skeletal related events (SREs).…”

“…Lesions smaller than 2 cm without cortical erosion had a particularly favorable prognosis. Local tumor-free survival after one year was achieved in 85 % of cases [64]. Supplementary measures such as osteoplasty can be necessary regardless of ablative therapy.…”

ABSTR AC TPurpose Local ablative therapies have become an established treatment option in interventional oncology. Radiofrequency ablation (RFA) and microwave ablation (MWA) are a standard of care in the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Currently, there is an increasing interest in cryotherapy, one of the oldest ablation techniques. It has some unique characteristics with regard to technology and mechanism of action.Materials and Methods A systematic literature search using the terms cryotherapy, cryosurgery and cryoablation was performed. Selected studies are presented dealing with the mechanism of action, cryobiology and clinical use of percutaneous, image-guided cryoablation. Recent developments and perspectives are presented.Results Cryotherapy is increasingly used and has been included in guidelines for selected tumor entities such as renal cell carcinoma. Cryo-immunotherapy and combination treatments are future areas of interest.Conclusion Cryoabalation may be used in many indications.Its major advantages are its unique visualization and the anesthesiologic effects of cold. While there are only a few prospectively randomized trials, the existing data on the use of cryoablation is promising. Its use appears to be justified in selected tumors, oligometastatic patients and for palliative indications.
