Computed tomography-guided microwave ablation therapy for pediatric adrenal neuroblastoma with lung nodule a case report

Abstract Background Solid lung lesions are common in clinical practice, and percutaneous thermal ablation has been shown to be an effective treatment for these lesions. While computed tomography (CT)-guided microwave ablation (MWA) therapy is frequently used for adult solid lesions, it is rarely con...

description Abstract Background Solid lung lesions are common in clinical practice, and percutaneous thermal ablation has been shown to be an effective treatment for these lesions. While computed tomography (CT)-guided microwave ablation (MWA) therapy is frequently used for adult solid lesions, it is rarely considered for pediatric cases. Case presentation A case of an 8-year-old child with adrenal neuroblastoma and a left upper lung mass. The child successfully underwent lung mass ablation and experienced a long-term progression-free period with good recovery and no recurrence. Conclusions This case suggests that MWA could be a valuable addition to existing treatment options for solid lesions in children.
