Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Percutaneous transhepatic portal embolization (PTPE) can induce atrophy of the embolized- and hypertrophy of the residual area. These effects are advantageous in patients scheduled for extended hepatectomy. To evaluate the experimental clinical safety and effectiveness of foam sclerotherapy with foam ethanolamine oleate (EO) and carbon dioxide (CO2) for PTPE. Sclerotherapy using foam EOI and CO2 is clinically safe and effective for PTPE before hepatectomy.
