Combined procedure of pulmonary resection and radiofrequency ablation of lung tumours – case reports

The authors present two case reports to describe the possibility of performing a combined procedure when dealing with lung cancer in patients who are not indicated for radical surgery. The combination of pulmonary resection and radiofrequency ablation thus opens a new possibility for a quality extension of active life.
