Standardized procedure of the ultrasound-guided percutaneous microwave ablation for benign breast tumors
Li Shuiping
Abstract：Benign breast tumors,such as fibroadenomas,are common conditions in women.Although many of them require no intervention,traditional surgical excision presents limitations such as trauma,scarring,and potential aesthetic concerns for patients with symptomatic,rapidly growing lesions or strong preferences for minimally invasive approaches.Ultrasound-guided percutaneous microwave ablation(MWA),an emerging thermal ablative technique,offers an ideal alternative by leveraging its advantages of minimal invasiveness,precision,high efficiency,and excellent cosmetic outcomes.This video submission systematically demonstrates the standardized procedural workflow,critical technical nuances,and immediate efficacy assessment of ultrasound-guided percutaneous MWA for benign breast tumors.
