ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the appearances of DSA and therapeutic methods of tanscatheter hepatic artery chomoembolization (THACE) of hepatic carcinoma with arteriovenous fistula(avf).Methods The indirect hepatic portal vein angiography (Superior mesenteric artery angiography) and celiac trunk angiography (common hepatic artery) were performed in 673 cases with hepatic carcinoma confirmed by pathology,then hepatic artery infusion-chemotherapy and/or embolizations were done. Results Heptic carcinoma to be accompanied with arteriovenous fistula(AVF) 151 was totally cases(22.4%),including artery-portal vein fistula 127 cases,artery-vein fistula 15 cases, mixed 9 cases.Of them, hepatic artery embolizations in 131 cases with artery-vein fistula(86.6%) were performed once or more times, in 20 cases due to the embolization of artery-vein fistula couldn’t be performed and/or with tumor embolus inside common portal vein while only arterial infusion-chemotherapy were performed.Conclusion DSA is accurate and direct diagnostic method in hepatic carcinoma with artery-vein fistula. Hepatic artery embolization and infusion-chemotherapy is an effective way for the patients with artery-vein fistula.
ABSTRACT
32 patients with the chronic renal failure treated by the periodical hemodialysis (male: 11, female: 21, average age (45)). A study aimed to evaluate the surgery for A-V fistula to make the entry to vascular which supplies fully the blood for hemodialysis. The results have shown that the rate of the complications (infection, bleeding, embolism, vasculitis; cardiac failure) was low, the technique supplied fully the blood flow (180 - 300 ml/h) and facilitate the hemodialysis process.
