Radiofrequency thermal destruction (thermoablation) remains one of the most popular methods of local destruction of liver tumors. There are perennial international experience in oncology, numerous trials and practical issues are rarely discussed. However, there are still strategic questions: when, to whom, in what cases. In fact, specialists recognizing effective impact do not always sure when thermoablation potential will be realized as much as possible. In this review the authors summarized world experience of liver malignancies thermoablation and tried to identify key positions in determining treatment strategy using this approach. Interdisciplinary approach is an absolute priority in optimal treatment of these patients.
