Treatment of Pulmonary Tumors Using Disposable Microwave Ablation Electrodes and a Microwave Ablation System Guided by Bronchoscopy: An Exploratory Study
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of transbronchial microwave ablation for lung cancer.
• Age ≥18 years old;
• Pathologically diagnosed as primary peripheral lung cancer, preoperative staging suggested clinical staging as T1N0M0, stage IA (including new-onset lung cancer after surgery and multiple primary lung cancer). Or it is a metastatic lung tumor, the primary lesion has been completely resected, and the maximum diameter of the tumor is ≤3cm, the number of tumors requiring intervention is ≤3.
• The lesion to be ablated has been evaluated as feasible for microwave ablation treatment under bronchoscopy guidance.
• Agree to undergo transbronchial MWA as initial treatment after being assessed unsuitable for surgery and radiotherapy or refusing surgery and radiotherapy, and sign informed consent.
