摘要
An 82-year-old man with a history of colorectal cancer presented with metastatic disease to the liver (Couinaud segment 8). We describe the techniques that we employed to successfully perform radiofrequency ablation of a liver metastasis near the dome of the diaphragm utilizing subphrenic infusion of normal saline. The aim of this technique was to prevent thermal injury of the diaphragm.
