説明
<jats:title>Abstract</jats:title><jats:p>As a countermeasure to portal tumor thrombi, which are a serious danger in liver cancer, we did portal vein embolization (PVE) during percutaneous transhepatic portography. Our 21 patients later underwent hepatic resection. After PVE, portal pressure increased and there was slight liver function damage, but this procedure was safer than transarterial embolization (TAE). We examined the pathologic specimens to view the state of occlusion achieved and also for histological findings, and found that Lipiodol ® mixed with fibrin was most effective. PVE done before hepatic resection strengthened the anticancer effect of TAE, prevented intrahepatic metastases, and caused permanent hypertrophy of the liver that may be useful as a kind of preparation for surgery.</jats:p>
