    Author: Chen WT, Lin SM, Lin CJ, Lin CC, Hsu CW, Chen YC.
    Journal: Hepatogastroenterology; 2007 Dec; 54(80):2365-7. PubMed ID: 18265666.
    Abstract:
    Radiofrequency (RF) ablation is considered as a relatively low-risk technique for treating liver malignancy. The pneumoperitoneum without peritoneal sign after RF ablation is previously unreported. A case is reported here of localized pneumoperitoneum unrelated to bowel injury following RF ablation for hepatocellular carcinoma.
