Transarterial chemoembolization for hepatocellular carcinoma
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is common cancer in the world. Hepatitis B/C or alcoholic cirrhosis is usually underlying condition. Surgical resection is curative treatment for small HCC, however most patients usually present when advanced or inoperable disease. Transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) is most common alternative treatment for early and advanced HCC. Curative treatment is possible...
متن کاملComparison of five staging systems in predicting the survival rate of patients with hepatocellular carcinoma undergoing trans-arterial chemoembolization therapy
The majority of patients with unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) undergo trans-arterial chemoembolization (TACE). However, the prognosis of HCC remains poor. In the present study, five staging systems were compared to predict the survival rate of patients with HCC undergoing TACE treatment. A total of 220 patients with HCC were examined according to the model to estimate survival for h...
متن کاملMultivariate Analysis of the Predictors of Survival for Patients with Hepatocellular Carcinoma Undergoing Transarterial Chemoembolization: Focusing on Superselective Chemoembolization
OBJECTIVE While the prognostic factors of survival for patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) who underwent transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) are well known, the clinical significance of performing selective TACE for HCC patients has not been clearly documented. We tried to analyze the potential factors of disease-free survival for these patients, including the performance of selecti...
متن کاملPrognostic role of noninvasive liver reserve markers in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma undergoing transarterial chemoembolization
BACKGROUND Various noninvasive liver reserve markers were proposed to indicate the severity of liver damage. However, the role and feasibility of these markers to predict the prognosis of patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) are unknown. We aimed to identify the prognostic role of the 8 currently used hepatic reserve markers in patients with HCC undergoing transarterial chemoembolizatio...
متن کاملLocoregional Transarterial Therapies for Hepatocellular Carcinoma: Transarterial Chemoembolization and Radioembolization
Background: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the sixth most common cancer in the world and the third most common cause of cancer-related mortality. Despite the widespread implementation of surveillance programs, more than half of the patients with HCC are diagnosed at late stages, when curative treatments (resection or liver transplantation) cannot be applied. For patients presenting with unre...
