متن کاملComplications of image-guided transcatheter hepatic chemoembolization of primary and secondary tumours of the liver.
BACKGROUND Image-guided transcatheter hepatic chemoembolization (TACE) is accepted worldwide as an effective treatment for patients with unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and for adequate preservation of liver function. Although considered relatively safe, TACE has been associated with several complications. The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of the complications as...
متن کاملLaparoscopic Debridement of Hepatic Necrosis After Hepatic Artery Chemoembolization
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Hepatic artery chemoembolization (HACE) used to treat neuroendocrine tumors metastatic to the liver has shown both survival benefit and improvement in symptoms.

متن کاملRuptured Hepatic Carcinoma After Transcatheter Arterial Chemoembolization☆
BACKGROUND Transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE) is recommended as the first-line therapy for unresectable hepatic carcinoma (HCC). Serious complications such as hepatic abscess and hepatic decompensation are well known, but rupture of HCC after TACE is a rare complication. OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to identify the associated risk factors and the outcomes resulting from ru...
