Abstract

Radiofrequency ablation is a treatment option for primary and secondary lung tumors, particularly in non-surgical patients. Although it is considered a safe and effective procedure, various complications can occur. Most of these adverse events are self-limiting and can be treated conservatively; however, some may be severe and require intervention. Radiologists play a pivotal role in the diagnosis and follow-up of these conditions, aiding in their early identification and management in clinical practice. They must be familiar with the expected and unexpected imaging post-procedure features. This article reviews the main complications of radiofrequency ablation of lung tumors and their associated CT findings.

肺部肿瘤射频消融术的并发症：CT表现及回顾。

射频消融是原发性和继发性肺肿瘤的治疗选择，特别是在非手术患者中。虽然它被认为是一种安全有效的手术，但可能会发生各种并发症。这些不良事件大多是自限性的，可以保守治疗；然而，有些可能是严重的，需要干预。放射科医生在这些疾病的诊断和随访中起着关键作用，在临床实践中帮助他们的早期识别和管理。他们必须熟悉预期和意外的术后影像学特征。本文综述了射频消融术治疗肺部肿瘤的主要并发症及其相关的CT表现。
