Liver Cancer Treatments
Tumors need a blood supply, which they actively generate, to feed themselves and grow.
In treating cancer patients, interventional radiologists attack the cancer tumor from inside the body without medicating or affecting other parts of the body by using embolization and radiofrequency heat.
![Page 7: Interventional procedures in hepatobiliary system](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062418/554b1f7ab4c90562098b53f2/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Chemoembolization delivers a high dose of cancer-killing drug (chemotherapy) directly to the organ while depriving the tumor of its blood supply by blocking, or embolizing, the arteries feeding the tumor.
![Page 8: Interventional procedures in hepatobiliary system](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062418/554b1f7ab4c90562098b53f2/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
In treating cancer patients, interventional radiologists use embolization to cut off the blood supply to the tumor (embolization), deliver radiation to a tumor (radioembolization), or combine this technique with chemotherapy to deliver the cancer drug directly to the tumor (chemoembolization).
![Page 9: Interventional procedures in hepatobiliary system](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062418/554b1f7ab4c90562098b53f2/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Chemoembolization is a minimally invasive treatment for liver cancer that can be used when there is too much tumor to treat with radiofrequency ablation (RFA), when the tumor is in a location that cannot be treated with RFA, or in combination with RFA or other treatments.
![Page 10: Interventional procedures in hepatobiliary system](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062418/554b1f7ab4c90562098b53f2/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Using imaging for guidance, a tiny catheter up the femoral artery in the groin into the blood vessels supplying the liver tumor.

ChemoembolizationThe embolic agents keep the
chemotherapy drug in the tumor by blocking the flow to other areas of the body. This allows for a higher dose of chemotherapy drug to be used, because less of the drug is able to circulate to the healthy cells in the body.
![Page 12: Interventional procedures in hepatobiliary system](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062418/554b1f7ab4c90562098b53f2/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Chemoembolization is a palliative, not a curative, treatment. It can be extremely effective in treating primary liver cancers, especially when combined with other therapies.

Yttrium-90 Radioembolization
Radioembolization is very similar to chemoembolization but with the use of radioactive microspheres. This therapy is used to treat both primary and metastatic liver tumors.
![Page 21: Interventional procedures in hepatobiliary system](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062418/554b1f7ab4c90562098b53f2/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
This treatment incorporates the radioactive isotope Yttrium-90 into the embolic spheres to deliver radiation directly to the tumor. Each sphere is about the size of five red blood cells in width.
![Page 22: Interventional procedures in hepatobiliary system](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062418/554b1f7ab4c90562098b53f2/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
These beads are injected through a catheter from the groin into the liver artery supplying the tumor. The beads become lodged within the tumor vessels where they exert their local radiation that causes cell death
![Page 23: Interventional procedures in hepatobiliary system](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062418/554b1f7ab4c90562098b53f2/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
This technique allows for a higher, local dose of radiation to be used, without subjecting healthy tissue in the body to the radiation.
![Page 24: Interventional procedures in hepatobiliary system](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062418/554b1f7ab4c90562098b53f2/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Radioembolization is a palliative, not a curative, treatment-but patients benefit by extending their lives and improving their quality of life. It is a relatively new therapy that has been effective in treating primary and metastatic liver cancers. It is performed as an outpatient treatment.

TIPS
Portal hypertension condition in which the normal flow of blood through the liver is slowed or blocked by scarring (cirrhosis) or other damage (e.g. hepatitis). Patients with the condition are at risk of internal bleeding or other life-threatening complications. Transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) formation is a minimally-invasive treatment to alleviate this impaired blood flow.

TIPS• A catheter is placed in the
right jugular vein
• The catheter is threaded through the superior and inferior vena cava to the hepatic vein
• Wall of the hepatic vein is punctured and the needle is directed across an approximate 2 inch gap to the portal vein
• Successful passage into the
portal vein is determined by the pattern of dye injected through the catheter
