Sumario: | Tumor metastases are the basic biological characteristics of malignant tumors, and the lungs are the second most prominent metastatic organs in which these develop after the liver. Currently, with the rapid development of ablation technology, ablation therapy as a local treatment is playing an increasingly important role in the treatment of lung metastases. Whether alone or in combination with other treatments, ablation therapy has achieved good therapeutic effects for the treatment of partial lung metastases. This article briefly summarizes the results of current and previous ablation treatments for lung metastases, and focuses on the value of ablation therapy for different kinds of lung metastases. |
