摘要

西非分区域有大量肝细胞癌病例，部分原因是缺乏专业知识和卫生基础设施，无法为出现早期疾病的患者提供有效的局部区域治疗。本报告记录了尼日利亚患者使用经动脉化疗栓塞和微波消融技术联合成功治疗早期HCC的病例。我们表明，尽管困难重重，这些技术是可能的。我们希望这篇文章将有助于促进讨论、政策变化和其他必要的改变，以建立有益的高端技术，减轻尼日利亚HCC患者的健康负担。

Transarterial chemoembolization and microwave ablation for early hepatocellular carcinoma in a Nigerian

The West African subregion has a high number of cases of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), and this is partly because of a lack of expertise and health infrastructure for the delivery of effective locoregional therapies for patients who present with early disease. This report documents the successful treatment of a case of early HCC in a Nigerian patient using a combination of transarterial chemoembolization and microwave ablation techniques. We showed that, despite difficulties, such techniques are possible. It is our hope that this publication will help stimulate discussion, policy changes, and other alterations necessary to establish beneficial high-end techniques for the alleviation of the health burden of HCC patients in Nigeria.
