Abstract:
Transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) is a standard treatment for Barcelona Clinic Liver Cancer stage B hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC),and TACE has already been widely accepted in clinical practice.Recently,more and more researches have indicated that TACE,as a palliative therapeutic regimen,carries certain defects,e.g.after several times of TACE treatment the HCC lesions become poorly-controlled.Therefore,some scholars put forward the concept of "TACE refractory".This paper aims to make a further discussion on the concept of TACE refractory and its treatment.
