Abstract:
Transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) combined the embolization with chemotherapy,whose efficacy has been verified in the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma.Factors like the incomplete embolism,the formation of collateral circulation,neoangiogenesis and the like greatly weaken the clinical efficacy of TACE in the long term.Thus,the improvement of TACE efficacy depends on the comprehensive treatment.This paper reviewed the present application status and the progress on the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma with TACE.
