Interventional treatment of primary liver cancer with spontaneous bleeding (3 cases report) / 介入放射学杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To evaluate the efficiency of interventional treatment for primary liver cancer with spontaneous rupture. Methods Three cases of spontaneous rupture of primary liver cancer were undertaken hepatic arterial chemoembolization with prior chemo-infusion and followed by gelfoam partical and stripes for embolization Results 3 cases of massive type of primary liver carcinoma with spontaneous rupture were all successfully once embolized, including one with additional super liquefied lipiodal as embolic agent who has been survived for more than 20 months. Conclusions Hepatic arterial chemo-embolization shows prominent hemostasis during emergency for spontaneous rupture of primary hepatic carcinoma providing double effectiveness of hemostasis and treatment.
