Sumario:Although significant advances in the treatment of prostate cancer (PC) have recently been made, the treatment of metastatic liver disease remains challenging. Recent advances have led to multiple novel therapies and multi-treatment approaches combining systemic and locoregional modalities, such as thermal ablation, representing a promising strategy that has received attention in recent years. Nevertheless, no standard locoregional treatment regimens exist for the management of liver metastases of PC. In addition, regional therapy alone is unlikely to provide durable cancer control. Here, we report for the first time a successful treatment of hepatic metastases of PC using stereotactic image-guided percutaneous microwave ablation and the poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 inhibitor, olaparib.
