Popis: | Objective To study severe and rare complications of transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) for liver cancer. Methods Clinical records of severe and rare complications following TACE in 1348 cases of liver cancer from January 1997 to February 2004 were studied retrospectively. Results A total of 2012 TACE procedures were performed for 1348 patients. There were 3 cases of spontaneous rupture of liver cancer, 1 case of perforation of duodenum, 3 cases of liver abscess (1 of them was associated with sepsis), 1 case of pulmonary embolism, 1 case of spasm of the hepatic artery, 40 cases of hepatic artery occlusion, 3 cases of femoral nerve injury, 1 case of bilioma and 1 case of acute renal failure. Conclusion Although the severe complications of TACE are rare, the procedure should be done cautiously including super selection of hepatic artery, slow infusion of lipiodol, careful postoperative observations and early detection and management of complications. |
