ABSTRACT
Objective To evaluate the effectiveness and method of intraarterial embolization in treatment of hepatic cavernous hemangioma. Methods 17 patients,8males and 9 females, were treated by super selective hepatic artery embolization with iodized oil, gelfoam pieces, and embolization coils. Results All patients had been embolized successfully. The rate of success was 100%. 11 cases were followed up by CT/USG for 1~12 months. The size of tumor was decreased more than 50% in 8 cases, more than 30% in 2 cases, and the effect was uncertain in 1 case. Symptoms of 11 patients were disappeared and relief was obvious in 5 cases.Total effective rate was 94% with no significant complications. Conclusions HAE is a safe and effective method.
