Purpose: To retrospectively evaluate the outcomes of radiofrequency (RF) ablation of lung metastases from head and neck adenoid cystic carcinoma (ACC)
Purpose: To determine the safety and feasibility of percutaneous transhepatic cholangiography (PTC) and intraductal radiofrequency (RF) ablation combined with biliary stent placement for malignant biliary obstruction.
Purpose: To perform a feasibility study to explore the relationship between hepatocellular carcinoma genetics and transarterial chemoembolization treatment response to identify potential biomarkers associated with enhanced treatment efficacy.
Backgrounds & Aims: The aim of this study is to evaluate the prognostic significances of not only the initial and the best response during repeated transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), but if eligible, also the time point of achieving treatment responses.
Background & Aims: We investigated the optimal radiologic method for measuring hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) treated by transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) in order to assess suitability for liver transplantation (LT).
Objectives: Patients requiring emergency treatment of visceral artery aneurysms (VAAs) can be treated by endovascular or surgical techniques. Outcomes after failed attempts at endovascular control are unclear as is the present role of surgery. This study reviewed treatment and outcomes of a contemporary cohort of patients with symptomatic VAAs at a tertiary referral centre.
Objective/Background: Stent placement in the venous system is an increasingly used treatment modality in chronic venous obstruction and as additional treatment after thrombolytic therapy in ilio-femoral deep vein thrombosis (DVT). Experience in treating in-stent thrombosis with ultrasound accelerated catheter directed thrombolysis (UACDT) is reported.
Objectives: Endovascular occlusion of blood vessels represents a key component of interventional therapy. While coils are most commonly used, vessel occlusion is generally not achieved immediately and may necessitate a large number of devices. It has been suggested that endovascular plugs may overcome these limitations; however, immediate and durable occlusion remains a challenge with plugs as well. This study evaluates a newly designed endovascular occlusion system (EOS)
Background: For resection of colorectal cancer (CRC) liver metastases, pre-operative portal vein embolization (PVE) is used to increase the size of the future liver remnant (FLR) prior to advanced liver resection when indicated. PVE is speculated to cause tumour progression, but only a limited number of studies have analysed tumour growth after PVE in the context of pre-procedural chemotherapy, which was the aim of this retrospective study.
Introduction: In selected patients, radiofrequency ablation (RFA) is a well-established treatment for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). However, subcapsular or lesions close to adjacent viscera preclude a percutaneous approach. In this setting laparoscopic-RFA (LRFA) is a potential alternative. The aim of this study was to analyse the safety and feasibility of LRFA in patients with HCC.
Background: Percutaneous cholecystostomy (PC) can be used to treat patients with acute calculous cholecystitis (ACC) who are considered to be unfit for surgery. However, this procedure has been insufficiently investigated. This paper presents the results of a 10-year experience with this treatment modality.
Objective: The aim of this study was to compare the effectiveness of percutaneous needle aspiration (PNA) and percutaneous catheter drainage (PCD) in the management of liver abscess
Objectives: This retrospective review was conducted to compare the efficacy of radiofrequency ablation (RFA) with that of transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) in treating large (5–8 cm) unresectable solitary hepatocellular carcinomas (HCCs).
Objectives: The optimal locoregional treatment for non-resectable hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) of ≥3 cm in diameter is unclear. Transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) is the initial intervention most commonly performed, but it rarely eradicates HCC. The purpose of this study was to measure survival in HCC patients treated with adjuvant stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) following TACE.
Introduction: With technological advances, questions arise regarding how to best fit newer treatment modalities, such as transarterial therapies, into the treatment algorithm for patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).
