Description | Regional chemotherapy promotes efficacy of chemotherapy. Proper placement of cathether within a.hepatica and full liver perfusion is essential. We prefere percutaneous implantation. The reason is more accurate placement of the cathether and management of anatomical anomalies of vascular system of liver, and more comfortable application for the patient. Moreover, it enables later decision on the engagement of the chemoembolistion which is unpossible in surgical cathether implantation. This paper persents the development of this technique and its results at Faculty Hospital Brno - Bohunice |
