Cerebral iodized lipid embolization via a pulmonary arteriovenous shunt: rare complication of transcatheter arterial embolization for hepatocellular carcinoma
We report the first European case of cerebral iodized lipid embolism post transcatheter arterial embolization for hepatocellular carcinoma. Lipiodol emboli and corresponding multifocal brain ischemia were documented with computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance (MR) in the acutely symptomatic patient. Transcranial Doppler sonography with contrast indicated a right-to-left shunt, while on...
متن کاملtranscatheter arterial chemoembolization therapy for patients with unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma
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 کاملRuptured hepatocellular carcinoma following transcatheter arterial chemoembolization.
Transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE) is known to be an effective palliative treatment in unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Although TACE can control tumour growth and palliate the patients, complications of TACE with significant morbidity are well known and adversely affect the outcome of patients. Necrotic tumor rupture is a serious complication of TACE and has a high mor...
متن کاملComparison of transcatheter arterial chemoembolization and transcatheter arterial chemotherapy infusion for patients with intermediate-stage hepatocellular carcinoma.
The aim of the present study was to compare clinical outcomes in patients with intermediate-stage hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) who underwent the following treatments: transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE) using an epirubicin-mitomycin-lipiodol (EML) emulsion at initial therapy (TACE group; n=145), and transcatheter chemotherapy infusion (TACI) using an EML emulsion at initial therap...
متن کاملTranscatheter arterial embolization of hepatic arteriovenous shunts in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma.
Most hepatic arteriovenous shunts (HAVS) associated with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) occur with advanced stage liver cancer, and these patients typically have a dismal prognosis. Transcatheter arterial embolization (TAE) in this population carries significant risk. Therefore, proper patient selection is critical to determine which patients may benefit from TAE. The Child-Pugh score should be...
