Repeated transarterial chemoperfusion and -embolization (TACE) in primary hepatic cholangiocarcinoma (CCC): Local tumor control and survival rate

Abstract: e15595 Background: To evaluate local tumor control and survival data in the palliative and symptomatic treatment of hepatic cholangiocarcinoma (CCC) using repeated transarterial chemoperfusion and -embolization (TACE) with two different chemotherapy protocols. Methods: 41 patients with primary cholangiocarcinoma (CCC) were repeatedly treated with transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) in 4-week intervals. In total, 291 TACE sessions were performed with a mean of 7.1 sessions per patient (mean age: 57.1 years;… Show more

“…Only 3 (4.7%) severe periprocedural adverse events were registered. Thus, TACE represents a safe treatment option in patients eligible for LRT as reported previously [ 26 , 27 , 31 , 32 ]. A recent case series demonstrated promising survival data for the use of TACE with or without radiofrequency ablation (RFA), yielding a cumulative median OS of 29.5 months [ 33 ].…”
