For patients with hepatocellular carcinoma, intra-arterial chemotherapy can be applied as an alternative treatment if there is concern about the occurrence of hepatic failure during transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE) due to main portal vein thrombosis or patient does not respond TACE. Various complications port system for have been reported so far, but no case has in which a coil c...

OBJECTIVE The purpose of our study was to assess whether a review of multiphasic helical CT combined with the previous serial CT images could be helpful to depict a viable tumor in hepatocellular carcinoma treated with transarterial chemoembolization. MATERIALS AND METHODS Twenty-four consecutive patients with 35 hepatocellular carcinomas underwent transarterial chemoembolization followed by ...

332 Background: Liver-directed therapies can be beneficial in reducing morbidity and mortality in patients with metastatic neuroendocrine tumors (mNETs). We compared the clinical outcomes of patients treated with hepatic artery embolization/chemoembolization (HA(C)E) or selective internal radiation therapy (SIRT) with SIR-Spheres at our institution over the last ten years. METHODS Medical rec...

A 42-year-old Iraqi woman with hypertension, peptic ulcer disease, and metastatic carcinoid disease presented to the emergency department (ED) with right upper quadrant pain and subjective fevers following chemoembolization for a neuroendocrine tumor of the liver diagnosed by biopsy in Iraq in 2000. The patient had undergone chemoembolization with polyvinyl alcohol particles 3 weeks prior to ar...

Transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) can prevent tumor progression in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma awaiting liver transplantation. This article introduces the effect of TACE before liver transplantation in terms of dropout rate, improvement in overall survival, prediction of survival, and its application as down-stage

From 2003 to 2013, 55 patients (median age 3.3 years; 29 males, 26 females) with unresectable, metastatic, or diffuse anaplastic histology (AH) Wilms tumor were treated with neoadjuvant transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE) and systemic chemotherapy.

Metastatic leiomyosarcoma has a dismal prognosis, and therapy mainly consists of palliative systemic chemotherapy. A selected subgroup of patients with limited metastatic disease may eventually derive benefit from more aggressive strategies, including resection of isolated metastasis. We report here the successful use of hepatic transarterial chemoembolization and retroperitoneal lymph node rad...

This manuscript describes an unusual case of rapid intra-hepatic dissemination of hepatocellular carcinoma with pulmonary metastases occurring 1 month after combined chemoembolization and radiofrequency ablation. Inferior vena cava and portal vein invasion tumor thrombus was also detected, possibly accounting for the mechanism of disease dissemination route of disease.

Imaging plays a key role in interventional oncologic procedures such as transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE) and percutaneous portal vein embolization (PVE). TACE delivers highly concentrated doses of chemotherapy to the tumor bed, while sparing the surrounding hepatic parenchyma [1, 2]. TACE has gained wide acceptance over the past twenty years and is now considered the main therapy...
