Abstract:
The articles concerning intensive effect and progress of interventional therapy for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) recurrence were comprehensively reviewed. Along with unceasing abundance of all interventional methods (including transcatheter arterial chemoemblization (TACE),percutaneous dehydrated ethanol injection,radio frequency ablation,percutaneous microwave therapy,argon-helium cryoablation,high-intensity focused ultrasound and radionuclide interventional therapy,etc),combined interven-tional therapies mainly TACE were increasingly appreciated in postoperative HCC recurrence,but still have to be further standardized. With further emerging and maturing of new technologies,such as antiangiogenesis,gene therapy and targeted therapy on HCC metastatic and recurrence specific cycle; the effect of combined therapy will be further promoted. Interventional therapy will play an important role in the prevention and treatment of postoperative HCC recurrence in the foreseen furture.
