Abstract:
Objective To identify the blood perfusion characteristics of different kinds of liver cancer and individualize interventional treatment models by color Doppler ultrasound(CDUS) and contrast-enhanced ultrasonography (CEUS). Methods The blood perfusion characteristics of 315 patients with liver cancer comfirmed by pathology were analyzed and classified using CDUS and CEUS. Individual interventional therapy models were selected based on the classification. Therapeutic effects were evaluated by EUS,contrast-enhanced CT(CECT) and DSA simultaneously. Results Liver cancer can be classified by the blood perfusion characteristics from CEUS examination. The individualized interventional treatment models were selected and evaluated according to the characteristics:①Solitary small HCC of diameter ≤3 cm group were treated via percutaneous ethanol injection(PEI),radiofrequency(RF) or percutaneous microwave coagulation therapy(PMCT). Necrosis rates of the lesions were 95.0% - 97.9%, 1 and 3 years survival rates were 98.0% and 87.8% ,respectively. ②Diameter ≤5 cm and lesions ≤3 group were treated with RF or PMCT combined PEI. Necrosis rates of the lesions were 93.7% - 94.8% ,1 and 3 years survival rates were 89.8% and 81.4% ,respectively. ③Diameter ＞5 cm and hypervascular tumor main fed by the hepatic artery group were treated with TACE,PEI combined RF or PMCT. Necrosis rates of the lesions were 71.4% - 73.8%, 1 and 3 years survival rates were 66.2% and 47.6%, respectively. ④ Diameter ＞5 cm and hypervascular tumor fed by double blood supply or accompanied by portal vein tumor thrombus group were treated with selective portal vein embolization(SPVE) based on the above treatments. Necrosis rates of the lesions were 53.3% - 55.6%, 1 and 3 years survival rates were 64.7% and 40.0%, respectively. Conclusions Classifying the blood perfusion characteristics and choosing individualized interventional treatment models by CEUS are of important clinical significance in non-surgical treatment of liver cancer.
