Abstract:
Objective:To study the effect and applicability of interventianal therapy using elemene emulsion with gastric carcinoma in the advanced period or relapse after operation.Methods:The embolization of advanced gastric carcinoma in 68 cases via left gastric artery,arteria mesenterica superior and arteria coeliaca in 296 patients using elemene emulsion was done with the method of LEF,ELP pand EAP,the indexes of the angiogram before and after treatment,GI and CT were studied for evaluating the effect with the intervals ranging from 2 to 4 months.The regression rate of carcinoma,the retained time of embolism,the survival stage,the survival rate and histopathology were observed.Results:The survival rate of one year was 63.2%,of two years 29.4% and of three years 7.4%.the average survival time of liver metastasis and non-metastasis was 9.6 and 15.6 months respectively,the regression rate of the carcinoma was 64.8%.These figures were higher than those of other interventional radiology and chemotherapy.Conclusion:The embolism with elemene emulsion is a hopeful method to treat the advanced gastric carcinoma of being unable to operation.
