Abstract Background & Aim The need for a subclassification of Barcelona Clinic Liver Cancer ( BCLC ) intermediate‐stage B) has arisen because its diversity. We evaluated the prognostic capability B proposed by Bolondi et al. in patients treated with transarterial chemoembolization TACE ). Furthermore, we introduce new hepatocellular carcinoma HCC using parameter related to tumour burden (up‐to‐11 criteria). Methods Of 3268 as first‐line treatment, 821 were included this study. Results...
To compare the effectiveness of transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) and radiofrequency ablation (RFA) for treating small (≤2 cm) hepatocellular carcinomas (HCCs).This retrospective study consisted 287 patients (mean age, 57.1 years; age range, 29-84 221 men, 66 women; 73.5% with HBV; 100% liver cirrhosis) Barcelona Clinic Liver Cancer very early-stage HCC cm single HCC) who were initially treated TACE (n=122) or RFA (n=165). The primary end point was overall patient survival. Secondary...
Abstract To develop an artificial intelligence (AI) model that predicts anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) agent-specific anatomical treatment outcomes in neovascular age-related macular degeneration (AMD), thereby assisting clinicians selecting the most suitable anti-VEGF agent for each patient. This retrospective study included patients diagnosed with AMD who received three loading injections of either ranibizumab or aflibercept. Training was performed using optical coherence...

Although CT coronary angiography (CTCA) and MR (MRCA) are increasingly used in patients with Kawasaki disease, comparison of artery assessibility diagnostic performance between the two imaging modalities has been rarely performed.To investigate which modality, CTCA or MRCA, is better for evaluating abnormalities disease.Between 2003 2011, 56 (38 boys/men; age range, 1-24 years) disease underwent MRCA (group A). Of these, 17 both B). Visibility 11 arterial segments each patient was graded on...
To investigate the outcomes of percutaneous metallic stent placements in patients with malignant biliary hilar obstruction (MBHO).From January 2007 to December 2014, 415 (mean age, 65 years; 261 men [62.8%]) MBHO were retrospectively studied. All underwent unilateral or bilateral stenting a T, Y, crisscross configuration utilizing covered uncovered stents. The clinical evaluated technical and success, complications, overall survival rates, occlusion-free survival.A total 784 stents...
Abstract Background & Aims We evaluated survival outcomes and prognostic factors associated with after TACE in a large cohort of 331 patients HCC segmental PVTT . Methods From 1997 to 2015, total were included this study from among 507 who underwent as first‐line treatment for Results After , the median whole was 10.7 months, 1‐year, 3‐year 5‐year rates 44.9%, 16% 12% respectively. Objective tumour response achieved 53.8% patients. Multivariable Cox regression analyses confirmed that...
Colonoscopic perforations have been managed with exploratory laparotomy, and resulted in some morbidity mortality. Recently, laparoscopic surgery is commonly performed for this purpose. The aim of study was to compare the outcomes several management strategies iatrogenic colonoscopic perforations.We retrospectively reviewed medical records patients who had treated perforation between January 2004 April 2013 at CHA Bundang Medical Center Korea.A total 41 were enrolled. Twenty underwent...
Purpose: To compare the responses of types 1 (sub-pigment epithelial) and 2 (subretinal) neovascularization in neovascular age-related macular degeneration (AMD) to anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) treatment.Methods: Fifty-five treatment-naïve AMD eyes (53 patients) were retrospectively included for analysis. All patients treated with three loading injections anti-VEGF agent, followed by further as required. The lesion size vascular density type lesions before after treatment...
To report the mid-term results of a single-center randomized controlled trial comparing drug-coated balloon angioplasty (DBA) and plain (PBA) for treatment dysfunctional radiocephalic arteriovenous fistulas (RCAVFs).In this prospective study, 39 patients (mean age, 62.2 years; 21 males, 18 females) with RCAVFs failing due to juxta-anastomotic stenosis were randomly assigned undergo either both DBA PBA (n = 20, group) or alone 19, between June 2016 2018. Primary endpoints technical clinical...
<b>Background and study aims:</b> Following noncurative endoscopic resection of early gastric cancer (EGC), the patient should be observed when underlying disease is severe, elderly, or refuses further treatment. The aim this was to analyze clinical outcomes patients with differentiated EGC who underwent without additional <b>Patients methods:</b> Included for treatment at Asan Medical Center between July 1994 January 2009. Clinical oncological were analyzed. <b>Results:</b> A total 159...
To evaluate the risk factors for retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) tears after intravitreal ranibizumab injections in neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD) and to determine efficacy of continued treatment RPE tears.A total 407 treatment-naïve eyes (377 patients) with nAMD were retrospectively included. All patients treated an initial series 3 monthly loading injections, followed by further as required. Baseline characteristics epithelial detachment (PED) lesion features...
Purpose: To investigate the clinical characteristics of perifoveal exudative vascular anomalous complex (PEVAC) in Korean patients.Methods: This retrospective study included 8 eyes (8 patients) diagnosed with PEVAC. Demographic patients, fundus photography, optical coherence tomography (OCT), fluorescein angiography, and indocyanine-green angiography (ICGA) findings were analyzed. Available follow-up data also reviewed.Results: The mean ± standard deviation age was 61.0 11.0 years logarithm...
We aimed to assess the safety and effectiveness of transcatheter arterial embolization (TAE) for mesenteric bleeding following trauma.From 2001 2015, 12 patients were referred our interventional unit trauma, based on clinical decisions computed tomography (CT) images. After excluding one patient with no focus who underwent emergency surgery, a total 10 (male:female ratio, 9:1; mean age, 52.1 years) super selective TAE visceral arteries included in this study. Technical success,...
Objectives To present the radiological and clinical results of transcatheter arterial embolization in patients with active bleeding after percutaneous renal procedures. Methods A total 79 consecutive who underwent angiography for procedure‐related were included retrospective analysis. Patient characteristics, angiographic management outcomes analyzed. Results On angiography, foci observed 81.0% (64/79), all whom embolization. Among 15 (19.0%) negative findings, empirical was carried out six...
Frequent failure of adrenal vein (AV) cannulation is a major obstacle to the universal use sampling (AVS) for subtyping primary aldosteronism (PA). This study aimed confirm and modify value previously reported AVS parameter PA in case on one side.Successfully catheterized studies 157 patients (121 as derivation cohort 36 validation cohort) from two tertiary hospitals were retrospectively reviewed. The AV/inferior vena cava (IVC) index was defined by dividing aldosterone/cortisol ratio (ACR)...
To evaluate the incidence of pseudophakic macular edema (PME) in eyes with a history retinal vein occlusion before cataract surgery and to identify any associated risk factors.The records 21,332 that underwent were retrospectively reviewed. Eyes had preoperatively no evidence pathology on optical coherence tomography at time treatment least 6 months included. diabetes or diabetic retinopathy, those previous intraocular intraoperative complications, administered glaucoma nonsteroidal...
Purpose There have been few reports regarding same-day discharge following uncomplicated procedures such as cerebral angiography and neurointervention.
