  • Title: [Hepatectomy in patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma after hepatic artery chemotherapy/embolization or hepatic artery embolization/ligation].
    Author: Hao CZ.
    Journal: Zhonghua Wai Ke Za Zhi; 1992 Dec; 30(12):735-7, 779. PubMed ID: 1339747.
    Abstract:
    Eight patients with advanced hepatic cancer underwent hepatectomy after repeated hepatic artery chemotherapy/embolization (HACE) or hepatic artery embolization/ligation (HAEL). Seven of the 8 patients survived for more than one year after operation, the longest being up to 73 months. The results showed that both HACE and HAEL are effective for the treatment of liver cancer, and in some patients they can make large tumors resectable.
