Abstract:
The relation between the amount of lipiodol deposition by intrahepatie arterial lipiodol embolization together with perfusion of chemotherapeutic agents and the efficacy of the therapy was evaluated in 90 cases of liver cancer. Resulting in 3 groups: 1 abundant, 2 moduate and 3 mild. There were prominent differences between group 1 and 2, but only slight differences for group 2 and 3 according to the rates of AFP lowering, turner shrinkage and 1 year survial. Thus the obvious high therapeutic efficacy was proportional to the amount of lipiodol deposition. The factors influencing the deposition of lipiodol was also discussed.
