Transarterial Chemoembolization with and without Microballoon Occlusion for Hypovascular Hepatocellular Carcinoma
An 85-year-old woman developed locally recurrent hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) after previous radiofrequency ablation combined with transarterial chemoembolization (TACE). Dynamic computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging revealed a hypovascular tumor, which was suspected as poorly differentiated HCC. TACE was performed using a microballoon catheter. First, a suspension of miripl...
متن کاملTransarterial 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 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...
متن کاملTransarterial chemoembolization combined with sorafenib for advanced hepatocellular carcinoma
Sorafenib has been demonstrated to improve survival rate in patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC); however, the survival benefit remains modest and the response rates remain poor. Transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) may be used for the treatment of advanced HCC with well-preserved liver function and has a high local tumor control rate. We hypothesized that patients with advan...
متن کاملTransarterial chemoembolization with drug-eluting beads versus conventional transarterial chemoembolization in locally advanced hepatocellular carcinoma
PURPOSE In hepatocellular carcinoma patients with large or multinodal tumors, where curative treatment options are not feasible, transarterial therapies play a major role. Transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) with drug-eluting beads (DEB-TACE) is a promising new approach due to higher intratumoral and lower systemic concentration of the chemotherapeutic agent compared to conventional TACE (cT...
