Transcatheter arterial chemoembolisation (TACE) is the treatment of choice for intermediate stage hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Doxorubicin-loaded drug-eluting beads (DEB)-TACE expected to improve performance conventional TACE (cTACE). The aim this study was compare DEB-TACE with cTACE in terms time-to-tumour progression (TTP), adverse events (AEs), and 2-year survival. Patients were randomised one-to-one undergo or followed-up at least 2 years until death. repeated ‘on-demand’. We...
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) arises in the context of cirrhosis and chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infections, diagnosis is often made at advanced stages. Because early-stage improves survival, guidelines recommend screening patients risk for HCC, such as with cirrhosis. However, adherence to programs suboptimal. In this review, we discuss value HCC provide practical guidance on patient selection methods. International concordantly cirrhosis, including HBV C infections or without...
To evaluate contrast material-enhanced ultrasonography (US) for depiction of endoleaks after endovascular abdominal aortic aneurysm repair (or [EVAR]) in patients with enlargement and no evidence endoleak.From November 1998 to February 2003, 112 underwent EVAR. At follow-up, duplex US biphasic multi-detector row computed tomographic (CT) angiography were performed. In 10 (group A), evident was observed, complications, at both CT US. Group A patients, men (mean age, 69.6 years +/- [standard...

To retrospectively evaluate the clinical outcome of patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) who exceeded Milan criteria, underwent transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) before orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT), to determine value computed tomography (CT)-based tumor response TACE as a preoperative selection criterion for OLT.The study included 33 HCC criteria and OLT after TACE. Informed written consent was obtained OLT. Institutional review board approval not required. Tumor...
Abstract Background Using data collected in the prospective observational study CIRSE Registry for SIR-Spheres Therapy, present aimed at identifying predictors of adverse events (AEs) following transarterial radioembolization (TARE) with Yttrium-90 resin microspheres liver tumours. Methods We analysed 1027 patients enrolled between January 2015 and December 2017 followed up 24 months. Four hundred twenty-two hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), 120 intrahepatic (ICC), 237 colorectal metastases...
Our purpose was to assess the impact of muscle quality on overall survival (OS) in patients with advanced HCC.
