Article Synopsis
  • In patients needing major liver surgery, portal vein embolization (PVE) is commonly done to help the remaining liver grow and avoid failure, but it sometimes doesn't work well enough.
  • The study introduces a new method called liver venous deprivation (LVD), which combines PVE and hepatic vein embolization (HVE) in one procedure to enhance liver growth more effectively.
  • This trial aims to compare how much the liver size changes after LVD versus PVE in patients with colorectal liver metastases, using advanced imaging techniques, while also measuring other health outcomes and side effects.

To improve the tumor localization during laparoscopic surgery, we describe an innovative technique involving superselective intra-arterial injection of blue dye in tumoral vessels to color the tumor before surgical enucleation. The dye injection was performed at the same time as superselective embolization, immediately before laparoscopic surgery in a hybrid operating room. We used this new treatment sequence on 50 consecutive patients.

Background A prior in vitro study showed that idarubicin was the most cytotoxic agent for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) cell lines. Idarubicin-loaded beads for transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) were previously evaluated for the appropriate dose in a phase I dose-escalation study. Purpose To evaluate objective response rate (ORR), safety, and survival after TACE by using idarubicin-loaded beads for unresectable HCC.

Purpose: In order to limit ischemia and operative bleeding during and after partial nephrectomy we developed a clampless laparoscopic technique, in a hybrid operating room, immediately after super-selective arterial embolization of the renal tumor. We evaluated feasibility and morbidity of this new approach of zero ischemia in partial nephrectomy.

Methods: We included prospectively 50 consecutive patients treated in a hybrid operating room by this new technique for a localized renal tumor in a university hospital between May 2015 and January 2017.

Background & Aims: There is controversy over the ability of transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunts (TIPS) to increase survival times of patients with cirrhosis and refractory ascites. The high rate of shunt dysfunction with the use of uncovered stents counteracts the benefits of TIPS. We performed a randomized controlled trial to determine the effects of TIPS with stents covered with polytetrafluoroethylene in these patients.

Acute aortic syndrome is an emergency that requires prompt diagnosis and treatment because of its high morbidity and mortality rates. The chosen imaging modality should allow to diagnose or eliminate the presence of an acute aortic syndrome but also identify signs of severity of the aortic disease. Computed tomography, transesophageal echocardiography and MRI have high sensitivity and specificity values and roughly equivalent for the diagnosis of acute aortic syndromes.
