Intermittent Pringle maneuver may be beneficial for radiofrequency ablations in situations with tumor-vessel proximity

Radiofrequency ablation (RFA) represents a treatment option for non-resectable liver malignancies. Larger ablations can be achieved with a temporary hepatic inflow occlusion (Pringle maneuver – PM).
