Table 1. Baseline characteristics 29 patients who underwent RFA from January 2014 to June 2019.
Figure 1. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve on the 6 months Local Tumor Progression-Free Survival (LTPFS). Area under the curve (AUC) was 0.712 (95% CI 0.61–0.82) for the largest diameter of the nodule (p.001). Based on ROC curve we choose 20 mm as the best cutoff (sensitivity 69%, specificity 70%).

Figure 2. Local Tumor Progression-Free Survival (LTPFS) of tumors < 20 mm and ≥ 20 mm in diameter. Median LTPFS was 6.6 months (range 5.1–8.2) for lesions ≥ 20 mm and 12.9 months (range 11.5–14.2) in tumors < 20 mm.
