IDR with aggressive progression after RFA for periportal HCC in a 65-year-old man. (A) CT scan obtained during RFA showing a periportal HCC mass treated with TACE, and gasification (green arrowhead) was observed in the ablation zone during RFA. (B-C) CT scan obtained during the portal venous phase 1 month after RFA showing the complete ablation zone (arrow) adjacent to the portal vein (green arrowhead). (D) CT scan obtained during the portal venous phase 3 months after RFA showing multiple newly occurring small HCCs of similar size (arrow) surrounding the complete ablation zone (*)
