    Author: Kihara Y, Tamura S, Nishikawa T, Kakitsubata Y, Kakitsubata S, Sugimura H, Yuki Y, Watanabe K.
    Journal: Radiat Med; 1993; 11(4):164-6. PubMed ID: 8234861.
    Abstract:
    This is a report of a patient with hepatocellular carcinoma whose hepatic arterial catheter, which was introduced via a subclavian arterial branch, migrated into his right gastric artery. The catheter was successfully maneuvered to a suitable position without any further invasive procedure. The importance of preparatory embolization of the right gastric artery is underscored.
