Percutaneous Obliteration of Urinary Leakage after Partial Nephrectomy Using N-Butyl-Cyanoacrylate Obliteration of the Urinoma with or without Coil Embolization of the Fistula Tract.

Purpose: To retrospectively evaluate the safety and efficacy of the percutaneous obliteration of urinary leakage after partial nephrectomy (PN) using coils and N-butyl-cyanoacrylate (NBCA).

Materials And Methods: Data of 10 consecutive patients who underwent percutaneous obliteration of urinary leakage after PN using coil and NBCA between February 2016 and May 2018 were retrospectively reviewed. A urinary fistulography was performed via the drainage catheter.

Update on Transarterial Chemoembolization with Drug-Eluting Microspheres for Hepatocellular Carcinoma.

Conventional transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (c-TACE) is a widely used first-line palliative treatment for patients with unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Despite the effectiveness of c-TACE, to date, technique and procedure scheduling has not yet been standardized. Drug-eluting microspheres (DEMs) were therefore introduced to ensure more sustained and tumor-selective drug delivery for permanent embolization.
