In 43 (78 per cent) of the 55 treatments, the liver and gastrointestinal tract were separated successfully. In the other 12 treatments, in which the separation was not confirmed by real-time ultrasonography, there was one case of perforation of the ascending colon after RFA; adhesion of the liver and colon resulting from previous laparotomy may have been related to the injury.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Production of artificial ascites can be undertaken safely, making RFA safe and effective for hepatic tumours adjacent to the gastrointestinal tract.
