Abstract:
Objective To study the clinical application of Yashiro catheter in chemoembolization of pelvic tumors.Methods Yashiro catheters were used in 11 of 23 cases with pelvic tumors who using Cobra catheter could not insert into homolateral internal iliac artery and median sacral artery,the blood supply arteries of tumors were found and selective chemoembolism was performed.The embolism of main stemof bilateral internal iliac arteries were done except the blood supply arteries of tumors with gelfoam in 12 of 23 cases and resection wasperformed by the same surgeons in 24~48 hours after chemoembolization.Results The time of intubatton in one branch of homolateralinternal iliac artery and median sacral artery was obviously shorten with Yashiro catheters.Superselective intubatton was successful in allpatients.The tumors were easy to strip,less bleeding and short operation time during operation.There were not recurrence followed-up 6~18 months after operation.Conclusion Chemoembolization of pelvic neoplasm by Yashiro is an effective and safe technique,it is beneficial to the removal of the pelvic tumor completely and reducing the recurrence of the tumors or metastasis.
