Contrast-enhanced MRI in a 54-year-old male who had HCC with PVTT: C1, contrast-enhanced MRI before MWA, PVTT was detected in right main branch (thick arrow); C2, 6 month follow-up MRI after MWA, most of the PVTT was ablated and the extent of PVTT was gradually reduced (thick arrow); C3-C4, 12 month follow-up and 18 month follow-up MRI after MWA, the extent of PVTT continued to reduce and remained stable (thick arrow); C5, 24 month follow-up MRI after MWA, the extent of right main branch PVTT remained stable (thick arrow), but the tumour thrombus in left main branch of portal vein was nascent (thin arrow). HCC, hepatocellular carcinoma; MWA, microwave ablation; PVTT, portal vein tumour thrombosis.
