RESUMO
Objective To introduce the methods,complications and management of transiliaca external artery port catheter system (PCS) implantation,and to discuss its feasibility and superiority. Methods Transiliaca external artery PCS implantation were performed in 110 patients with medium or advanced malignant hepatic tumor.There were 86 male and 24 female, with average 50.8 years old, including 68 cases primary hepatic cancer, 42 cases metastatic cancer. Follow-up time was 2～53 months. Results The operation successful rate was 98.2% (108/110). Complications included: puncture local hematoma in 5 cases (4.5%), cut infection in 1 case (0.9%), slow bleeding in cut in 2 cases (1.8%), light swelling and paining of right testicle in 1 case (0.9%), target arteries occlusion or serious narrowness in 6 cases (5.5%), displacement of the tip of catheter in 3 cases (2.7%). Complications rate was 15.5% (17/110).Conclusion Transiliaca external artery PCS implantation is safe and feasible, the successful rate is higher and complications rate is lower, it can be introduced as a sort of routine method.
