Abstract:
Objective: To explore the value of combined treatment of advanced hepatic carcinoma. Methods:117 cases with advanced hepatic carcinoma underwent a combined treatment by radio frequency ablation(RF),percutaneous ethanol injecton(PEI),transcatheter hepatic arterial chemoembolization(TACE)and transultrasonic portal vein chemoembolization (SPVE).The comparison was made between this treatment and that of TACE alone in terms of size of tumor ,changes of blood supply and clinical effects before and after each of these two treatments. Results: After three months,Ultrasonographic examination showed that the tumor size decreased by 25.0% was 87.2%.The disappearing rate and decreasing rate of blood supply of tumor was 88.0%; AFP turning-negative rate was 78.3%.The follow-up survey showed that one-year and two-year survival rates for combined therapy were 73.5%and 62.4% respectively ,significantly higher than that for the control TACE group 59.4%and 32.6%. Conclusion: The combined treatments are effective ways for carcinoma treatment. Color Doppler imaging is important to guide and assess the treatment.
