Colorectal cancer is a major cause of cancer-related mortality, with liver metastases occurring in over third patients, and correlated poor prognosis. Despite surgical resection being the primary treatment option, only about 20% patients qualify for surgery. Current guidelines recommend thermal ablation either alone or combined surgery to treat limited hepatic metastases, provided that all visible disease can be effectively eradicated. Several modalities, including radiofrequency ablation, microwave cryoablation, irreversible electroporation histotripsy, are part percutaneous armamentarium. Thermal radiofrequency, offer local tumor control rates comparable selected tumors ablated margins. This review aims encapsulate current clinical evidence regarding efficacy oncologic outcomes after colorectal metastatic disease.
