Objective To assess the therapeutic outcomes of transcatheter arterial chemoembolization combined with percutaneous injection of chemoembolization agent intra-portal vein tumor thrombosis for primary hepatic carcinoma accompanied by portal vein tumor thrombus. Methods Thirty patients with primary hepatic carcinoma accompanied by portal vein tumor thrombosis of type Ⅱ and type Ⅲ were randomly divided into two groups. The Child-Pugh ratings (class A and B) of group A and B were 9 vs 9 (class A) and 5 vs 7 (class B) respectively (χ~2 = 0.201, P > 0.05). The constitution of Type Ⅱ and type Ⅲ portal vein tumor thrombus in group A and B were 8 vs 9 and 6 vs 7 respectively (χ~2 =0.002, P>0.05). The median values of ALT, TBIL, ALB and AFP in group A and B were 58.7U/L vs 70.5 U/L (W=191.5, P>0.05), 21.4 μmol/L vs 21.7μmol/L (W=203, P>0.05), 35.3 g/L vs 37.5 g/L (W = 214, P > 0.05) and 680 μg/L vs 873 μg/L (W = 179. 00, P > 0.05) respectively. Group A was treated with transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE) using emulsion made up of adriamycin, cisplatin, mitomycin and ultraliquidlipiodol plus percutaneous injection of chemoembolization agent intra-portal vein tumor thrombosis using emulsion consisted of cisplatin and ultraliquidlipiadol, while group B was treated with TACE only as a control group. Survival analyses were performed via the Kaplan-Meier test in SPSS11.5 with the log-rank tests with an threshold of 0.05. Results The 3, 6 and 12 months survival cases of group A and B were 11 vs 10, 10 vs 3, and 7 vs 0 respectively. The median survival time of group A and group B were 14.0 months and 4.0 months respectively. The difference of the two groups was significantly (χ~2 =11.728, P<0.01). There was no severe side-effect related to therapy in both groups. Conclusion Comparing with the control group, TACE combined with percutaneous injection of chemoembolization agent intra-portal vein tumor thrombosis could significantly prolong the median survival time of patient with primary hepatic carcinoma accompanied by type Ⅱ and type Ⅲ portal vein tumor thrombosis.

Objective To assess the therapeutic effect of combination chemotherapy of gemcitabine and cisplatin by double way plus implantation of radioactive seed 125I implantation in treating stage Ⅲ non-small cell lung cancer. Methods Sixty cases with stage Ⅲ non-small cell lung cancer were randomly divided into two groups with random number table. In group A (in interventional treatment group, n = 30),the gemcitabine 1000 mg/m2 and one third of the cisplatin 100 mg/m2 was given using seldinger technique for transcatheter bronchial arterial infusion chemotherapy on day 1. Two-thirds of the cisplatin 100 mg/m2 was infused in veins on day 2 and 3. The gemcitabine 1000 mg/m2 was infused in veins on day 8, 21 days for a period. In group B (interventional - 125I groups), the method of combination chemotherapy of gemcitabine and cisplatin was the same as in Group A. After ten days of arterial perfusion, 125I seeds were implantated, 21 days for a period. All patients received at least 2 cycles. The imaging evaluation of patients after treatment standards included complete remission (CR), partial remission (PR), stable (SD),progressive disease (PD), effective rate (CR + PR)/30 and clinical benefit rate (CR + PR + SD)/30.Non-parametric rank sum test was used to compare short-term effect of the two groups treatment of two cycles.x2 test was used to compare year survival, Kaplan-Meier method was used to calculate median survival,log-rank test method was used to difference between the groups. Results In group A, there were 17 PR,9SD and 4 PD. The overall response rate was 56. 7% (17/30) and clinical beneficial rate was 86. 7% (26/30). In Group B, there were 2 CR, 21 PR, 7 SD. The overall response rate was 76.7% (23/30) and clinical beneficial rate was 100% (30/30). There was significant difference between the two groups (P =0. 036). In group A, the 1 year survival rate was 46. 7% (14/30) and the 2 year survival rate was 36. 7%(11/30), median survival time (MST) was 10 months . In group B, the 1 year survival rate was 76. 7%(23/30) and the 2 year survival rate was 63. 3% (19/30) , median survival time (MST) was 27 months.There was a significant difference between two group in 1 year survival rate (P = 0. 017), 2 year survival rate (P = 0. 039) and median survival time (P = 0. 006). Conclusion The treatment effects of Ⅲ stage non-small cell lung cancer by gemcitabine and cisplatin combination chemotherapy with double way plus radioactive seed 125I implantation was better than gemcitabine and cisplatin combination chemotherapy with double way.

Objective This study was to investigate the value of CT guided 125iodine implantation combining transcatheter arterial chemoembolization(TACE) to prevent digestive tract bleeding in patients with portal vein tumor thrombus in primary hepatocellular carcinoma. Methods Forty patients with portal vein tumor thrombus which were diagnosed to have primary hepatocellular carcinomas by diagnostic criteria of Chinese Anti-Cancer Association were collected prospectively. They were divided into the treatment group and the control group, with 20 patients in each group. The treatment group was treated by TACE for hepatic tumor and 125iodine seed implantation for portal vein tumor thrombus, while the control group was treated by TACE for hepatic tumor and only given β-blockers medicines after treatment. Intraoperative and postoperative surgery-related complications were observed. Three months after surgery, enhanced abdominal CT scanning was performed to evaluate treatment effects which were divided into complete response (CR), partial response (PR), and progressive disease (PD) and stable of disease (SD), and the local tumor control rates were calculated. The bleeding rates and mortality after 3 months, 6 months, 12 months were recorded. Treatment effects of the two groups were compared with continuously correction Chi-square test, bleeding rates were compared with Fisher test, and survival rates were analyzed with Kaplan-Meier survival curve and compared with Log-rank test. Results Overall the 40 patients were treated successfully without serious surgery-related complications. In the treatment group, there were 8 patients with PR, 6 with SD and 6 with PD, and the local control rates were 40% (8/20). In the control group, there were 1 patient with PR, 6 patients with SD and 13 with PD. The difference of the local control rates was statistically significant (χ2=5.161, P=0.023).The bleeding rates at 3, 6 and 12 months were 2, 2 and 3 cases in the treatment group, for control group they were 2, 6 and 10 cases respectively. There was no statistical difference between the 3 months and 6 months bleeding rates (P values were 1.000 and 0.235), but for 12 months bleeding rates, the difference was statistically significant (P=0.041).The 1 year cumulative survival rates of the treatment group and control group were 70% (14/20) and 40% (8/20), and the difference was statistically significant (χ2=4.675, P=0.031). Conclusion The treatment of 125iodine implantation combining transcatheter arterial chemoembolization in patients with portal vein tumor thrombus in primary hepatocellular carcinoma can reduce variceal bleeding rate and improve survival rate.
