    (Colégio Brasileiro de Radiologia e Diagnóstico por Imagem, 2004-06-01) D'Ippolito, Giuseppe [UNIFESP]; Ribeiro, Marcelo; Universidade Federal de São Paulo (UNIFESP); Hospital São Luiz; Universidade de São Paulo (USP); Hospital São Luiz Serviço de Transplante Hepático
    Laser-induced thermoablation has been used as a reliable method for producing coagulation necrosis in hepatic tumors in patients who are not suitable for surgical treatment. The procedure can be performed percutaneously, using image-guiding methods, by open laparotomy or laparoscopy. We review the current literature and discuss the principles, indications, complications and clinical results as well as the potential limitations and contraindications of this novel technique.
