Conventional versus doxorubicin-eluting bead transarterial chemoembolization for hepatocellular carcinoma.
PURPOSE To compare short- and long-term clinical outcomes after conventional transarterial chemoembolization and drug-eluting bead (DEB) transarterial chemoembolization in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). MATERIALS AND METHODS Patients with unresectable HCC unsuitable for ablative therapies were randomly assigned to undergo conventional or DEB chemoembolization. The primary endpoints of the st...
متن کاملTransarterial chemoembolization with drug-eluting beads versus conventional transarterial chemoembolization in locally advanced hepatocellular carcinoma
PURPOSE In hepatocellular carcinoma patients with large or multinodal tumors, where curative treatment options are not feasible, transarterial therapies play a major role. Transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) with drug-eluting beads (DEB-TACE) is a promising new approach due to higher intratumoral and lower systemic concentration of the chemotherapeutic agent compared to conventional TACE (cT...
متن کاملHemorrhage Following Drug-Eluting Bead Transarterial Chemoembolization of Hepatocellular Carcinoma
We report the case of a 78-year-old woman with hepatocellular carcinoma who underwent drug-eluting bead transarterial chemoembolization (DEB-TACE). On the first routine follow-up CT six-weeks post procedure, the patient was found to have residual enhancing tumor and active intra-tumoral hemorrhage (Fig 1A). Follow-up laboratory values demonstrated a decrease in hemoglobin. Subsequent catheter a...
متن کاملConventional vs drug-eluting beads transarterial chemoembolization for hepatocellular carcinoma
Transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) is the current standard of therapy for patients with intermediate-stage hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) according to the Barcelona Clinic Liver Cancer classification. The concept of conventional TACE (cTACE) is the selective obstruction of tumor-feeding artery by injection of chemotherapeutic agents, leading to ischemic necrosis of the target tumor via cyto...
متن کاملTransarterial chemoembolization with drug-eluting beads in hepatocellular carcinoma
Transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) is a widely used standard treatment for patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) who are not suitable candidates for curative treatments. The rationale for TACE is that intra-arterial chemotherapy using lipiodol and chemotherapeutic agents, followed by selective vascular embolization, results in a strong cytotoxic effect as well as ischemia (convention...
