Abstract

Thank you for inviting me to write this editorial letter for the article “Percutaneous Management of Pulmonary Metastases arising from Colorectal Cancer: a Systematic Review” published by Lyons et al . in the journal of European Journal of Surgical Oncology (1). This article searched the previously published literatures on the treatment of colorectal pulmonary metastases (CRPM) with radiofrequency ablation (RFA). Medline (since 1952), EMBASE (since 1980), the Cochrane library (since 1995), CINAHL (since 1982) and Google Scholar were adopted, which included a total of eight publications that satisfy the final criteria. The authors concluded that RFA is a safe and effective technique for the management of CRPM.
