transcatheter arterial chemoembolization therapy for patients with unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma
conclusions we showed that in treatment of patients with unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma, tace significantly improved the disease and the overall survival rate. also, we introduce the tumor size, serum alp level, and number of liver involved segments as prognostic factors of the procedure. finally, tace can be recommended as the initial treatment for unresectable hcc patients. background ...
متن کاملTranscatheter arterial embolization of hepatic arteriovenous shunts in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma.
Most hepatic arteriovenous shunts (HAVS) associated with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) occur with advanced stage liver cancer, and these patients typically have a dismal prognosis. Transcatheter arterial embolization (TAE) in this population carries significant risk. Therefore, proper patient selection is critical to determine which patients may benefit from TAE. The Child-Pugh score should be...
متن کاملTumor Response to Transcatheter Arterial Chemoembolization in Recurrent Hepatocellular Carcinoma after Living Donor Liver Transplantation
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the tumor response and patient survival rate following transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE) in recurrent hepatocellular carcinoma (r-HCC) after living donor liver transplantation (LDLT). MATERIALS AND METHODS Twenty-eight patients with r-HCC underwent one or more cycles of TACE after LDLT (mean, 2.5 cycles). After a mixture of iodized oil and anti-cancer drugs...
متن کاملTranscatheter Arterial Chemoembolization Therapy for Patients With Unresectable Hepatocellular Carcinoma
BACKGROUND Although transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE) has been widely used as a palliative treatment for unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), its actual efficacy and prognostic usefulness have not been clarified in past studies. OBJECTIVES The aim of the study is to investigate the efficacy, complications, and prognostic factors of the TACE in unresectable HCC patients. ...
متن کاملDNA methylation of tumor suppressor genes in hepatocellular carcinoma
The basic unit of chromatin is a nucleosome included an octamer of the four core histones and 147 base pairs of DNA. Posttranslational histones modifications affect chromatin structure resulting in gene expression changes. CpG islands hypermethylation within the gene promoter regions and the deacetylation of histone proteins are the most common epigenetic modifications. The aberrant patterns of...
