: The cohort (but not the analysis) of the current study overlaps with two previously published reports in that 125 tumors in 37 patients were part of prior investigations.<i>a) Reference #16</i>Comparison of Percutaneous Image-Guided Microwave Ablation and Cryoablation for Sarcoma Lung Metastases: A 10-Year Experience. AJR Am J Roentgenol. 2022 Mar;218(3):494–504. ExternalRef removed. Epub 2021 Oct 6. Bourgouin PP, Wrobel MM, Mercaldo ND, Murphy MC, Leppelmann KS, Levesque VM, Muniappan A, Silverman SG, Shepard JO, Shyn PB, Fintelmann FJ.Here we assessed overall survival and local tumor progression of pulmonary sarcoma metastases treated with percutaneous microwave and cryoablation.<i>b) Reference #17</i>Outcomes Following Percutaneous Microwave and Cryoablation of Lung Metastases from Adenoid Cystic Carcinoma of the Head and Neck: A Bi-Institutional Retrospective Cohort Study. Ann Surg Oncol. 2021 Oct;28(11):5829–5839. ExternalRef removed. Epub 2021 Feb 23. Leppelmann KS, Levesque VM, Bunck AC, Cahalane AM, Lanuti M, Silverman SG, Shyn PB, Fintelmann FJ.Here we assessed overall survival and local tumor progression of Adenoid Cystic Carcinoma of the Head and Neck metastases treated with percutaneous microwave and cryoablation.The current study differs in that the focus is persistent air leaks following percutaneous lung ablation of peripheral lung tumors, regardless of histology.
