Abstract
A distinctive feature of pancreatic cancer is its aggressiveness and rapidity. Neuroendocrine tumors are distinguished among neoplasms of the pancreas. Pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors are diagnosed on the basis of anamnesis, laboratory tests and the results of instrumental studies. However, the non-specific character of symptoms does not allow early detection of the disease. In a large proportion of patients, pancreatic neoplasms are diagnosed at stages III-IV. Radiofrequency ablation is an invasive intervention with the high temperature local effect on the tumor, resulting in the death of neoplastic cells. The method is based on the effect of high-frequency radio waves on pathological tissues. 6 radiofrequency ablations of neuroendocrine tumors of the pancreas under the control of endoscopic ultrasonography were performed at the N. N. Blokhin Oncology Research Center. There were no complications in the postoperative period. All patients were discharged with recommendations for supervision of an oncologist at their place of residence. It is also noted that such a method of treatment improves the further course of the disease and the life quality in patients.
