Table 4.
The efficacy of sequential RFA treatment.
| Variable | Initial | After first RFA | 6 months after sequential RFA | P-value |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Volume (ml) | 48.89 ± 44.41 (26.09–203.37) | 13.96 ± 11.35 (3.68–51.29) * | 2.01 ± 1.56 (0.98–7.20) # | <0.005*/<0.005# |
| VRR (%) | / | 67.4 ± 17.8 (30.6–92.9) | 94.8 ± 3.8 (83.4–98.4) | <0.0001 |
*Initial vs. after first RFA; #After first RFA vs. 6 months after sequential RFA.
VRR, volume reduction rate; values are means ± standard deviations (range).
