Abstract
- Transcatheter arterial embolization was applied in 7 cases of hepatic disease including hemobilia of various causes and malignant tumors at Department of Radiology, Seoul National University Hospital during recent several years. The embolic materials were autologous blood clot and Gelfoam particle. Successful control of bleeding or devascularization of tumor vessel was made in 6 of the 7 patients. There was no serious complications; however, post embolization syndrome was found including pain, fever, nausea and vomiting in all cases and subsided after a few days. Transcatheter hepatic arterial embolization is suggested to be a safe and effective treatment in control of hemobilia and devascularization of malignant hepatic tumors.
