I ended up going to Mayo Clinic for a Whipple Procedure. Went to 3 of the best hospitals in the country and they all said do NOT do radio frequency ablasion. Very happy I did the Whipple and I’ve healed up with no complications or stress that the tumor will grow back. If you’re dead set on having RFA, I would get opinions from multiple doctors before doing anything.

@jasonrex86 I had distal pancreatectomy, gall bladder and spleen along with RFA in 2025.
After RFA the PET scan showed increased uptake in the liver, but the surgeon explained that this was normal and would decrease. The next scan was better and showed no significant uptake (I also started cabometyx between the scans).
