PURPOSE To compare the technical efficacy and complications of the transarterial injection of a miriplatin-iodized oil suspension combined with radiofrequency ablation (RFA) or microwave ablation (MWA) in the treatment of small hepatocellular carcinomas (HCCs). MATERIALS AND METHODS This retrospective study included 123 HCCs in 101 patients treated with the transarterial injection of a miriplatin-iodized oil suspension and RFA (MPT-RFA) (maximum diameter: 1.5 [Formula: see text] 0.5 cm, range: 0.6-3.0 cm) and 68 HCCs in 49 patients treated with the transarterial injection of a miriplatin-iodized oil suspension and MWA (MPT-MWA) (maximum diameter: 1.6 [Formula: see text] 0.7 cm, range: 0.5-3.0 cm). Technical success was defined as the achievement of an ablative margin of at least 5 mm for each tumor. Technical success, complications, and local tumor progression were compared between the two groups. RESULTS The initial technical success rate was significantly higher with MPT-MWA (94.1%) than with MPT-RFA (76.4%; P = 0.003). The number of treatment sessions per nodule was significantly lower with MPT-MWA (1.1) than with MPT-RFA (1.3) (P = 0.004). The major complication rates were similar with MPT-RFA (5.8%) and MPT-MWA (2.7%) (P = 0.391). The one-year local tumor progression rate was similar between MPT-RFA (0%) and MPT-MWA (0%) (P = 0.73). CONCLUSION MPT-MWA may have improved therapeutic efficiency in the treatment of small HCCs.
