Abstract: Objective To evaluate the clinical efficacy of computed tomography(CT)-guided percutaneous microwave ablation(MWA)in the treatment of pulmonary oligometastases after radical resection of non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC), and to analyze factors affecting survival. Methods The clinical data of 36 patients with pulmonary oligometastases after radical resection of NSCLC during Jan. 2014 and Dec. 2018 were retrospectively analyzed. All patients received CT-guided percutaneous microwave ablation to treat oligometastases. Follow-up and CT examinations were performed on 4-7 days, 1 month and every 3 months after ablation. The overall survival(OS), progression-free survival(PFS)and local progression-free rate were calculated with the Kaplan-Meier method. The differences among groups were compared with Log-rank test, and the independent risk factors were determined with Cox multivariate analysis. Results All patients underwent MWA successfully. Complications occurred in 5 cases(13.9%), including pneumothorax in 3 cases and chest pain in 2 cases. All complications were cured before discharge. The results of Kaplan-Meier and Log-rank test showed that for patients with oligometastatic tumor diameter ≤3 cm, the 3-year PFS and 3-year local progression-free rate were 11.1% and 11.1%, respectively, while for patients with oligometastatic tumor diameter >3 cm, the 3-year PFS and 3-year local progression-free rate were 0.0% and 0.0%, respectively, with statistically significant difference(P<0.001). Cox multivariate analysis showed that oligometastatic tumor diameter >3 cm was an independent risk factor for 3-year PFS(P<0.001)and 3-year local progression-free rate(P<0.001). Besides, no correlation was found between the clinical characteristics and 3-year OS. Conclusion CT-guided percutaneous MWA is safe and effective in the treatment of pulmonary oligometastases after radical resection of NSCLC, and it is practical to delay the local progression of oligometastatic tumors ≤3 cm in diameter.
