Abstract
Many treatment options are available for the management of cancer pain including drugs, local excision, radiation, brachytherapy, and nerve blocks. Percutaneous radiofrequency ablation has been used to treat painful neurologic and bone lesions and thus could potentially be used to treat cancer pain in other sites. Two superficial subcutaneous metastatic nodules were treated with percutaneous radiofrequency ablation. The patient received significant pain relief and improved quality of life.Entities:
