| Sumario: | Tumor ablation has been widely applied in Asia, accounting for 44.65% of clinical studies worldwide. We reviewed 5853 clinical studies to provide insight on the advance of tumor ablation in Asia chronologically and geographically among different techniques and organs. Since 1998, tumor ablation application has dramatically evolved in Asia. All kinds of ablation techniques, including percutaneous ethanol injection (PEI), radiofrequency ablation (RFA), microwave ablation (MWA), laser ablation (LA), cryoablation (CA), high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU), and irreversible electroporation (IRE), have been applied, with the first application of PEI and the most popular application of RFA. Twenty-five countries and one district in Asia have applied tumor ablation in various organs, including liver, lung, uterus, thyroid, kidney, pancreas, bone, prostate, breast, adrenal gland, lymph node parathyroid, esophagus, etc. Due to the high incidence of tumors as well as advanced economy and technology, East Asia accounted for 93.87% of studies, led by China (45.00%), Japan (32.72%), South Korea (12.10%), and Taiwan (4.03%). With the enrichment of evidence from large-scale multicenter and randomized control studies, China and South Korea have issued several guidelines on tumor ablation for liver, lung, and thyroid, which provided recommendations for global standardization of tumor ablation techniques. Therefore, Asia has made active contribution to global tumor ablation therapy.Keypoints Key point 1: Asia accounted for 44.65% of clinical studies worldwide on tumor ablation. Key point 2: Twenty-five countries and one district in Asia have used tumor ablation in various organs, and East Asia accounted for 93.87% of studies, led by China (45.00%), Japan (32.72%), South Korea (12.10%), and Taiwan (4.03%). Key point 3: China and South Korea have issued several guidelines on tumor ablation for liver, lung, and thyroid, which provided recommendations for global standardization of tumor ablation techniques |
