Transarterial chemoembolization using iodized oil for unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma: perspective from multistep hepatocarcinogenesis
Transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) using iodized oil (Lipiodol(®)) (Lp-TACE) as a carrier of chemotherapeutic agents has been routinely performed to control hepatocellular carcinomas (HCC) in Japan, and its use has yielded fairly beneficial therapeutic results. Lipiodol is thought to pass through the tumor sinusoids of HCC and reach the outflow drainage areas, namely, the portal venous side...
متن کاملTranscatheter arterial chemoembolization therapy for hepatocellular carcinoma using polylactic acid microspheres containing aclarubicin hydrochloride.
Transcatheter arterial chemoembolization therapy using polylactic acid microspheres containing aclarubicin hydrochloride (ACR) was performed in 62 patients with primary hepatocellular carcinoma. These microspheres were about 200 microns in diameter and contained 10% (w/w) aclarubicin. A single dose of polylactic acid microspheres containing ACR (50-100 mg of ACR) was administered 1 to 8 times w...

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 کاملTransarterial chemoembolization in combination with percutaneous ablation therapy in unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma: a meta-analysis.
BACKGROUND Recent evidence suggests that transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE) combined with radiofrequency ablation (RFA) or a percutaneous ethanol injection (PEI) may have a synergistic effect in treating hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). The aim of the current meta-analysis was to identify the survival benefits of TACE combined with percutaneous ablation (PA) therapy (RFA or PEI) for...
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. ...
