[EN] Purpose: To improve the computer modelling of radiofrequency ablation (RFA) by internally cooled wet (ICW) electrodes with added clinically oriented features. Methods: An improved RFA computer model by ICW electrode ...
[EN] Purpose To characterize the coagulation zones created by two radiofrequency (RF)-based hemostatic devices: one comprised an internally cooled monopolar electrode and the other comprised externally irrigated bipolar ...
[EN] Radiofrequency energy has been used both experimentally and clinically to manage the pancreatic remnant after distal pancreatectomies. Our goal was to determine whether endoluminal radiofrequency (RF) ablation of the ...
Purpose: To evaluate the impact of using monopolar thermal coagulation based on
radiofrequency (RF) currents on intraoperative blood loss during liver resection.
Materials and methods: A prospective randomized controlled ...

Introduction Pre-clinical studies suggest that thermal ablation of the main pancreatic duct (TAMPD) is more recommendable than glue for reducing postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF). Our aims were (1) to analyze ...
Background: Pancreatic duct ligation (PDL) has been used as a model of chronic pancreatitis and as a
model to increase β-cell mass. However, studies in mice have demonstrated acinar regeneration after
PDL, questioning ...
[EN] Metastases in the liver frequently grow as scattered tumor nodules that neither can be removed by surgical resection nor focally ablated. Previously, we have proposed a novel technique based on irreversible electroporation ...
[EN] Pancreatic duct ligation (PDL) in the murine model has been described as an exocrine pancreatic atrophy-inducing procedure. However, its influence has scarcely been described on premalignant lesions. This study describes ...
[EN] Due to electrical features of the tissue, such as impedance, which have a significant impact on irreversible electroporation (IRE) function, the administration of glucose solution 5% (GS5%) through the hepatic artery ...
Purpose: To assess the capacity of two methods of surgical pancreatic stump closure in
terms of reducing the risk of pancreatic fistula formation (POPF): radiofrequencyinduced
heating versus mechanical stapler.
