Abstract No. 528 Modeling socioeconomic and demographic variables affecting inferior vena cava filter placement and retrieval: a single-institution retrospective review at a safety net hospital from 2012 to 2019

Abstract

Of 30 patients, one patient was found to have multifocal biliary strictures requiring two biliary stents on endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography five months post procedure (n ¼ 1, 3.3%). Two patients demonstrated grade 3/4 bilirubin toxicity (n ¼ 2, 6.7%). The average treatment dosage was 135 Gray (range, 95-341 Gy). Compared to the biliary complication rate described in the literature for HCC with 2.1% for biliary findings on imaging and 6.8% for grade 3/4 bilirubin toxicity 2 , our study showed comparable rates of 3.3% and 6.7%, respectively. Conclusions: Yttrium-90 radioembolization of segment IV HCC demonstrated no significant difference in biliary complication rates compared to nonsegment specific biliary complication rates reported in the literature.
