摘要
Percutaneous radiofrequency ablation (RFA) is a new procedure to treat lung cancer. Pneumothorax (PTX) may occur intraprocedurally, especially with the large RFA probes, and complicate the completion of the treatment. The authors describe a case of PTX developing during RFA and its successful management.
