Fig. 1C 54-year-old man in whom intrahepatic hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC)
recurred 3 months after partial resection of right hepatic lobe
(early-recurrence group). Before radiofrequency ablation,
-fetoprotein
level rose to 788.9 ng/mL. Contrast-enhanced CT scans obtained 1 month after
radiofrequency ablation show unenhanced area of coagulation extending beyond
original tumor (arrowhead) but distant recurrence (arrow) in
segment II.
-Fetoprotein level was 24 ng/mL. Patient subsequently
underwent another radiofrequency ablation for recurrent HCC.
