The present status and progress of interventional therapy of hepatocellular carcinoma / 介入放射学杂志

ABSTRACT

The article of interventional therapy of hepatocellular carcinoma were reviewed including the method,basic research and the questions remained to be solved.All interventional therapies consisted of transcatheter arterial chemoembolism,transcatheter arterial heat infusion,transcatheter arterial heat embolism,Chinese medicinal herb,percutaneous ethanol injection,radiofrequencey ablation,percutaneous microwave coagulation and cryosurgery had their insufficiencies.The combined therapy,such as double chemoembolism,TACE combined with ablation,TACE combined with gene therapy could further promote the therapeutic effect.The research of the biological behavior of the residue after TACE was just at the beginning with problems still to be acknowledged.With the emerging of anti-oncogene therapy(P 53)and oncolytic virus therapy represented the gene therapy,together with anti-angiogenesis therapy,now the interventional therapy for hepatocellular carcinoma steps in a new stage.The treatment of during and perioperative periods possesses a great correlative influence with the therapeutic effect and complications and should be further standardized.
