[Acute damage to the myocardium and left lung is a complication of high-frequency percutaneous thermoablation of solitary metastasis of renal cancer into the liver (a clinical observation)].

: The paper describes a case of severe complication of radio-frequency percutaneous thermoablation of renal metastasis into the liver, which occurred in a young woman with the intact cardiovascular system and manifested itself in the development of alveolar edema of the lung and acute dilation of the stomach. Pulmonary edema resulted from left ventricular myocardial and pulmonary parenchymal lesions and acute mitral valvular insufficiency. The authors' considerations as to the possible cause and mechanisms of development of this life-threatening complication first described in the literature are also given.
