Abstract:
Objective To investigate the clinical value of indwelling hepatic arterial catheter in splitting fullfilling of lipiodol treatment for giant primary hepatic carcinomas. Methods Sixteen patients with giant primary hepatic carcinomas under DSA guidance,splitting lipiodol embolizations were carried out through indwelling hepatic arterial catheter everyday until the lipiodol with fulfilling the tumors. Total forty times (average 2.5 individually)of interventional treatment were accomplished in these patients. Liver function and short-term effect after interventional therapy were observed. Results None of these 16 patients had serious liver function damage and recovered uneventfully after general protective care. PR and SD were achieved in 9 and 7 cases respectively,3 months after this interventional procedure. PD was not found. Conclusions Indwelling hepatic arterial catheter in fulfilling of lipiodol treatment for giant primary hepatic carcinomas is not only unlikely to cause serious liver function damage,but also can completely embolize the tumor quickly,therefore worthy to be recommended clinically.
