Management of arterial dissections in 12 patients during transarterial chemoembolization and yttrium-90 selective internal radiotherapy for primary and secondary liver tumours.

Objective: To describe rates and management strategies of arterial dissections in transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) and Yttrium-90 selective internal radiotherapy (Y SIRT) for primary and secondary liver tumours.

Materials And Methods: This retrospective review included 1377 hepatic angiographies between May 2010 and June 2015 in a single centre for TACE and Y SIRT of liver tumours. The angiogram results, management, treatment outcomes and follow-up angiography/imaging findings were recorded.
