Radioembolization with yttrium-90 resin microspheres for neuroendocrine tumor liver metastases.
PURPOSE We aimed to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of radioembolization with yttrium-90 (90Y) microspheres in cases with unresectable neuroendocrine tumor liver metastases (NETLMs). METHODS Thirty patients (mean age, 55 years) underwent resin-based 90Y radioembolization for unresectable NETLM at a single institution between April 2008 and June 2013. Post-treatment tumor response was as...
متن کاملYttrium-90 Radioembolization for Pancreatic Neuroendocrine Liver Metastases
Background: Management options for pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (pNETs) metastatic to the liver include surgical, ablative, cytotoxic, and radioisotope approaches. One potential local treatment option includes selective internal radiotherapy utilizing yttrium-90 ( 90 Y) microspheres. 90 Y has also been used in the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma and tumors metastatic to the liver. It ...
متن کاملRadioembolization with yttrium-90 microspheres for pancreatic cancer liver metastases: results from a pilot study.
BACKGROUND Patients with liver metastases from pancreatic adenocarcinomas have a dismal prognosis. Surgical resection remains the only curative option but is appropriate for only a minority of patients as a treatment option. This is the first study to examine the safety and efficacy of radioembolization with yttirum-90 microspheres for these patients. PATIENTS AND METHODS All patients with hi...
متن کاملRadioembolization of liver tumors with yttrium-90 microspheres.
Radioembolization (RE), also termed selective internal radiation therapy (SIRT), has been gradually introduced to the clinical arsenal of cytoreductive modalities in recent years. There is growing evidence for efficiency in liver tumors of various entities, with the most prominent ones being hepatocellular carcinoma, colorectal cancer, and neuroendocrine tumors. Hepatic metastases of numerous o...
متن کاملRadioembolization with selective internal radiation microspheres for neuroendocrine liver metastases.
BACKGROUND There are limited effective treatment options available and a poor 5-year survival for patients with inoperable neuroendocrine liver metastases (NETLMs). In this study, the authors prospectively assessed the safety and efficacy of treatment with yttrium 90 ((90)Y) radioactive microspheres for patients with unresectable NETLMs. METHODS Radioactive (90)Y resin microspheres (selective...
