Tumor-induced osteomalacia (TIO) is a vanishingly rare paraneoplastic syndrome which is usually caused by phosphaturic mesenchymal tumors (PMTs). The conventional treatment for PMTs is total resection, and ultrasound-guided radiofrequency ablation (RFA) can also be used for the treatment of PMTs patients, especially for patients in whom complete resection may lead to serious complications. We report two cases with PMT who presented syndrome with progressive musculoskeletal complaints and performed ultrasound-guided biopsy and RFA. Ultrasound-guided RFA, which is a safe and effective minimally invasive treatment option, appears to be a valuable alternative to surgery for patients presenting with PMT. We are the first reported case of RFA guided by ultrasonography in the treatment of PMT.

Huo J et al. Comparative Effectiveness of Computed Tomography-Versus Ultrasound-Guided Percutaneous Radiofrequency Ablation Among Medicare Patients 65 Years of Age or Older With Hepatocellular Carcinoma. Value Health 2019; 22(3):284–292 Die Inzidenz des Leberzellkarzinoms hat sich in den letzen 20 Jahren mehr als verdoppelt. 2018 wurden in den USA mehr als 31 600 neue Fälle registriert, knapp die Hälfte dieser Patienten war älter als 65 Jahre. Die damit verbundenen jährlichen Kosten werden auf 455 Millionen US Dollar geschätzt. Für fortgeschrittene, inoperable Fälle steht die Radiofrequenzablation als Therapieoption zur Verfügung, die Ultraschall- oder Computertomographie-gestützt durchgeführt werden kann. Die Autoren vergleichen die Effektivität beider Bildgebungstechniken für das Verfahren.
