ABOUT RADIOFREQUENCY ABLATION

INDICATIONS

  • Palliative treatment in spinal procedures by ablation of metastatic malignant lesions in a vertebral body.
  • Coagulation and ablation of tissue in bone during surgical procedures including palliation of pain associated with metastatic lesions involving bone in patients who have failed or are not candidates for standard therapy.
  • Ablation of benign bone tumors such as osteoid osteoma.

Risks

  • As a consequence of electrosurgery, damage to surrounding tissue through iatrogenic injury could result
  • Pulmonary embolism
  • Nerve injury including thermal injury, puncture of spinal cord or nerve roots potentially results in radiculopathy, paresis, and paralysis
