Summary

The safety and efficacy evaluation of echocardiography-guided percutaneous radiofrequency ablation (Liwen prcocedure) for cardiac tumors: a single-arm, prospective, single-center clinical study.

Detailed description

Cardiac tumor is a rare disease in clinical practice, which is divided into primary cardiac tumor and secondary cardiac tumor, of which secondary cardiac tumor is about 20 to 40 times of primary.The clinical symptoms of cardiac tumors are complex and varied, mainly related to the size and location of tumors. Tumors often lead to blood flow obstruction, arrhythmia, systemic embolism, which seriously threaten the life of patients.At present, surgical resection is the only operation treatment. However, many cardiac tumors have lost the chance of surgery because of many reasons. Based on previous work, we found echocardiography-guided percutaneous radiofrequency ablation (Liwen procedure) to treat cardiac tumors.This is a single-arm, prospective, single-center clinical study. After signing the informed consent letter, the patients were screened to meet the enrollment conditions and were treated with Liwen procedure for cardiac tumors. Follow-up was performed at 7 days, 30 days, 3 months, 6 months and 12 months.

Conditions

• Heart Neoplasms

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
PROCEDURE	Echocardiography-guided percutaneous radiofrequency ablation for cardiac tumors	In the parasternal long-axis section, the cardiac puncture guide line was used to locate the puncture, and the best puncture path through the chest wall was selected. The coaxial biopsy needle was punctured through the guide frame, and then through the skin and subcutaneous tissue into the heart tumor tissue to take 2-10 biopsy samples, which were sent for pathological examination. The biopsy needle was extracted, and the radiofrequency electrode needle was punctured along the coaxial sheath to the planned ablation site of the heart tumor. The radiofrequency ablation device was started and the ablation treatment was performed.
