4. Radiation dose calculation: Formulae for glass and resin

21.3.2.5 Second Visit (Microsphere Injection)
The microsphere has to be injected within four weeks of the
rst visit. It has a good safety prole and can be done as a
daycare procedure. For patients with solitary lesions and
normal liver function, lobar injection of the microsphere may
be done. For solitary lesions with abnormal liver function, a
segmental injection is done. For multiple lesions with preserved liver function, sequential lobar injection is done.
TARE is contraindicated in patients with multiple liver
lesions with deranged liver function.
21.3.2.6 Complications
1. Post-radioembolization syndrome: It is the most common
complication (~30–50%). Fatigue is the most common
presentation.
2. Radiation to normal liver parenchyma: Liver failure,
radiation-induced liver disease (~5%).
3. Reux of microsphere: Biliary complications (~10%),
gastric complications (~5%).
4. Lung shunting: Radiation-induced pneumonia (<1%).
21.3.4 Hepatic Artery Infusion Chemotherapy (HAIC)
HAIC involves the direct delivery of a chemotherapeutic
agent to the liver with a catheter tip in the common hepatic
artery. There is high rst-pass metabolism of the chemotherapeutic agent by the liver before it reaches the systemic circulation and hence has lesser systemic side effects as
compared to systemic chemotherapy. A high concentration
of chemotherapeutic drugs can be delivered to the HCC with
no signicant increase in systemic toxicity. HAIC is indicated in advanced HCC (BCLC-C) where TACE and TARE
are contraindicated and have shown a better overall survival
rate as compared to systemic chemotherapy [27].
21.4 Hepatic Arterial Interventions inNonHCC Liver Tumors
Non-HCC liver tumors comprise a vast spectrum of tumors
including benign tumors (like hemangioma, FNH, and adenoma), intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (IHCC), and liver
metastasis from colorectal carcinoma (CRC), breast, melanoma and neuroendocrine tumors (NET).
21.3.3 Transarterial Bland Embolization (TAE)
Bland embolization is done using gel foam or PVA particles
and acts by depriving the tumor of its arterial blood supply. It
is a simple procedure and is indicated only in the setting of a
ruptured nonresectable HCC in a hemodynamically unstable
patient [26].
21.4.1 Neuroendocrine Liver Metastasis (NELM)
Neuroendocrine tumors very commonly metastasize to
the liver (80%). The treatment modality for NELM is
decided based on liver tumor load, pathological grade of
the tumor (WHO Gd-I to Gd-III based on Ki67, mitotic
count, and differentiation), and degree of endocrine activ-

ity. Curative surgical resection is the treatment of choice
for patients who are t for surgery with well-dened
resectable liver metastasis (no lymph nodal, extrahepatic,
or peritoneal metastasis). Liver transplant is not routinely
done due to the high recurrence rate. Hepatic arterial
interventions and percutaneous ablation are reserved for
unresectable liver metastasis (30–50% liver invasion)
with low pathological grade (WHO Gd-I and Gd-II) [28].
Hepatic arterial intervention in this setting is not curative
and benets the patient only by controlling growth and
endocrine symptoms. Bland embolization and conventional TACE are well tolerated by patients as compared to
DEB-TACE and TARE (associated with increased incidence of acute carcinoid syndrome, complications, and
death) [29]. Bland embolization has better outcomes in
cases of liver metastasis from gastrointestinal NET while
cTACE (Cisplatin + doxorubicin) has better outcomes in
cases with liver metastasis from pancreatic NET [30].
Poor overall survivability is seen if the location of primary NET is unknown, higher pathological grade (WHO
Gd-III), in male patients and in NELM of the caudate lobe
[31]. Increased risk of acute carcinoid syndrome is seen
after the episode of embolization if there is associated
portal venous thrombosis and bile duct dilatation. In
advanced unresectable diseases, hormonal (octreotide),
conventional (Cisplatin), and targeted molecular (peptide
receptor radionuclide therapy—PRRT) chemotherapy
may be of value. Cytoreductive surgery is indicated if
symptoms are not controlled using drug/hormonal
therapy.
21.4.2 Other Liver Metastases
are inoperable at the time of presentation. IHCC is chemoresistant and causes satellite metastatic liver lesions
making systemic chemotherapy and liver transplantation
ineffective therapies. The majority of mortality in latestage IHCC is due to intrahepatic tumor burden (liver failure), and hence liver-directed therapies are the cornerstone
of treatment for unresectable IHCC and increase overall
survival even in patients with extrahepatic metastasis. The
location and vascularity of the tumor dictate therapeutic
planning. A hypovascular tumor is managed more efciently with percutaneous ablation or external beam radiotherapy (EBRT) while hypervascular lesions are better
managed using hepatic arterial interventions. Patients
undergoing TARE have a better response (mRECIST) as
compared to TACE (conventional/DEB) and TAE [33].
21.4.4 Benign Liver Tumors
Various benign pathologies like hemangioma, adenoma,
focal nodular hyperplasia (FNH), and benign hepatic cysts
(ADPKD) may involve the liver parenchyma. Most of
these lesions are asymptomatic and may be managed conservatively. Treatment is warranted if the lesions become
symptomatic, start enlarging in size, cause hemorrhage,
hepatic insufciency, or show a malignant transformation
[34]. Surgical resection is the mainstay of therapy.
Interventional radiological treatment can be used in cases
where surgery is not feasible or as a presurgical treatment
(reduction in size or vascularity). Intervention radiological strategies may include percutaneous ablation or
hepatic arterial embolization (bland embolization or conventional chemoembolization).
Most commonly originate from colorectal carcinoma
(CRC), breast, and melanoma. The oligometastatic disease has been successfully treated using percutaneous
ablative therapies as well as hepatic arterial interventions.
DEBIRI TACE has shown much promise in the treatment
of CRC liver metastasis [32]. Patients with oligometastatic breast cancer disease (few metastases conned to
the liver) have shown more survival after DEB-TACE as
compared to conventional TACE.
21.4.3 Intrahepatic Cholangiocarcinoma (IHCC)
IHCC is the second most common primary liver malignancy. Ten percent of cholangiocarcinoma is intrahepatic,
and the majority of IHCC presents as mass-forming
lesions. The tumor is inltrative in nature and presents at
a more advanced stage, hence the majority of the lesions
21.4.4.1 Hemangiomas
They are the most common benign tumor involving the
liver parenchyma. They are mostly managed conservatively (steroids, beta-blockers). Nonconservative management is warranted when the lesions are symptomatic,
large in size (giant hemangiomas >10cm), and present
with Kasabach Merritt syndrome, rupture, and hemorrhage. Surgical resection is the rst treatment modality.
Transarterial bland embolization (TAE) may be done prior
to surgery (to reduce size and vascularity) or in cases of
tumor rupture. cTACE using bleomycin and lipiodol mixture may also be done [35]. (Fig.21.4) Percutaneous RFA
is also a treatment option.
21.4.4.2 Focal Nodular Hyperplasia
This is the second most common benign liver lesion and is
characterized by a central stellate scar with an artery traversing through the scar. Treatment is indicated in growing
lesions and large (>4cm) lesions with a suspected increased

risk of traumatic hemorrhage [36]. TAE may be done prior to
surgery or as an alternative to surgery.
21.4.4.3 Hepatocellular Adenoma
It is the third most common benign liver tumor and has a high
propensity to hemorrhage. Tumor growth is associated with oral
contraceptive pill use and pregnancy (estrogen- dependent). For
symptomatic patients with tumor rupture, surgical resection is
the treatment of choice for stable patients while TAE is the treatment of choice for unstable patients with hemoperitoneum. The
rst line of treatment in asymptomatic patients is the removal of
the offending agent (OCP) and reimaging after 3–6months. The
lesion may be managed conservatively if it reduces or stays
stable in size in the follow- up scan. Surgical resection is indicated after the follow- up scan if the lesion grows in size or if
there is an increased risk of hemorrhage (>5cm) and malignant
transformation (males, glycogen storage disorder) [37].

are seen in the left lobe lesion
21.5 Hepatic Arterial Interventions inPostTransplant Patients
Hepatic arterial complications comprise the most common
vascular complications in a post-liver transplant patient. The
hepatic artery provides the major blood supply to the hepatic
parenchyma and bile ducts in a post-transplant liver, and
hence hepatic arterial complications pose a serious threat to
graft function and recipient survivability. Cholangiolar
abscesses and nonanastomotic biliary strictures are more
commonly seen in recipients with hepatic artery complications. Arterial complications are more commonly seen in
adult patients and occur equally in live donor liver transplants (LDLT) and dead donor liver transplants (DDLT)
(unlike venous complications which are more common in the
pediatric population and LDLT). Diagnosis is made using a
Doppler study. Various hepatic arterial complications are
tabulated in Table21.6.

21.6 Interventions inHepatic Artery
Aneurysms andPseudoaneurysms
True aneurysms of the hepatic artery are less commonly
seen compared to pseudoaneurysms. They are ow-related
and more commonly seen involving major arterial trunks
like common and proper hepatic arteries. They form due to
a deciency in arterial wall strength and are more commonly seen in older patients (associated with atherosclerosis). If seen in younger patients, they may be associated
with connective tissue disorders. Since true aneurysms are
located in larger, nontortuous arteries (feasible for larger
device placement) which are nonexpendable, placement of
a covered stent to cut off the aneurysm from the main circulation is the treatment of choice. If covered stent placement
is not feasible, coil packing of the aneurysmal sac using
detachable coils or balloon-occluded coil packing may be
done [38].
Pseudoaneurysms of the hepatic artery are more common
and are iatrogenic or infective in origin (MC—postintervention). They arise from segmental hepatic artery
branches, lack all three wall layers, and require emergency
intervention. Since they are located distally in expendable
arteries with collateral circulation, the sandwich technique of
coiling (closing both the backdoor and front door) is the
treatment of choice (Fig.21.5).

21.7 Interventions inArterioportal Fistulas
Arterioportal stulas (APF) are more commonly acquired vascular malformations with direct communication between the
hepatic artery and portal vein. An acquired arterioportal stula
develops due to trauma, post-hepatic interventions, post-surgery, and spontaneously (e.g., in HCC). Arterioportal stulas
are classied according to location and hemodynamics [39].
Type 1 arterioportal stulas are small peripherally located
asymptomatic stulas. They develop mostly after hepatic
interventions. They thrombose spontaneously and are managed conservatively. Persistence of ow after one month or
development of symptoms warrants embolization. Type 2 arterioportal stulas are acquired large centrally located stulas
which develop after penetrating liver lacerations. They present
with features of portal hypertension and may lead to portal
brosis if left untreated. Coil embolization is the rst line of
artery branch (arrow). Note the microcoils in the aneurysm sac (block
arrow). (e) Post-procedure celiac angiogram shows no opacication of
the pseudoaneurysm (coil packed—block arrow) with distal ow present
in the segment VIII branch of the right hepatic artery (arrow). No other
branches of celiac artery supply the pseudoaneurysm. No other pseudoaneurysms are seen. (f) Post-procedure coronal MIP reformat of CT angiography of the abdomen depicts metal artifacts in the pseudoaneurysm
sac (block white arrow) due to microcoils. No contrast opacication of
the pseudoaneurysm sac is seen with normal contrast opacication of the
distal segment VIII hepatic arterial branch (white arrow)
treatment. PVA/glue embolization may be required if multiple
feeders are present. Surgery is done if there is the persistence
of ow after embolization. Type 3 arterioportal stula is congenital diffuse intrahepatic arterioportal communication. The
baby presents with failure to thrive, severe portal hypertension, and cirrhosis. A liver transplant is the treatment of choice.
21.8 Hepatic Parenchyma Repopulation
Hepatic arterial infusion of bone marrow stem cells has been
used as a novel technique to increase hepatocellular regeneration. This novel modality has been used for increasing
liver regeneration in patients with cirrhosis [40]. This may
also be used to increase liver regeneration in patients who
fail to reach desired standardized future liver remnant (sFLR)
after portal vein embolization.

Key Messages
1. TJLB is a low bleeding-risk procedure, and the two most
common indications for TJLB are coagulopathy and signicant ascites.
2. The two most common indications of TIPS in clinical
practice are refractory ascites and secondary prophylaxis of variceal bleeding. Hepatic encephalopathy (HE)
is the most common post-TIPS complication, seen in
25–45% of cases. Careful patient selection is crucial to
prevent this complication.
3. TIPS vs. BRTO should be individualized depending on
the vascular anatomy, associated co-morbidities, availability, and local expertise. TIPS may be a better option
in patients with associated ascites and/or portal vein
thrombosis without any other contraindications. In contrast, BRTO may be a good option for patients having a
high risk of post-TIPS hepatic encephalopathy or heart
failure.
4. PVR-TIPS may need procedure modications, such as
transhepatic or transsplenic balloon or snare-assisted
techniques.
5. A stepwise approach is followed in managing BCS,
starting from anticoagulation, angioplasty ± stenting,
creation of portosystemic shunt, and nally, liver
transplantation.
6. Primary stenting in BCS is preferred for long-segment
HV or IVC stenosis or occlusion, while only angioplasty
sufces for short-segment stricture.
7. The indications of TIPS/DIPS in BCS include an absence
of any recanalizable hepatic veins, failure to respond to
angioplasty and anticoagulation, and progressive disease
despite successful angioplasty and/or stenting.

8. PVE is a safe and well-tolerated procedure without any
change or a slight transient uctuation in liver function
following the procedure. Unlike trans-arterial embolization, patients experience either no or minimal postembolization syndrome because PVE induces apoptosis
rather than ischemic necrosis.
9. PVE with glue induces superior FLR hypertrophy than
other embolic agents; however, glue embolization
requires technical expertise to avoid non-target
embolization.
10. The most common indications for IVC lter placement
in patients with VTE are contraindication to anticoagulants, failure to anticoagulants, and stoppage of anticoagulants due to complications.
22.1 Introduction
Interventional procedures of hepatic veins, inferior vena
cava (IVC), and portal veins are mostly related to liver cirrhosis and portal hypertension. The different interventional
procedures include basic procedures like transjugular liver
biopsy and hepatic venous pressure gradient measurement to
technically challenging procedures such as transjugular
intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) or direct IVC to
portal vein shunt (DIPS). Patients with Budd–Chiari syndrome require hepatic vein or IVC angioplasty with/without
stenting. Moreover, patients with dominant spontaneous portosystemic shunt-related symptoms (bleeding and hepatic
encephalopathy) demand shunt occlusion, usually achieved
through retrograde venous route, i.e., balloon or vascular
plug-assisted retrograde transvenous obliteration (BRTO/
PARTO). As an alternative to portal vein ligation (PVL), portal vein embolization (PVE) can be performed in a minimally
invasive way to achieve adequate future liver remnant hypertrophy, thereby avoiding liver failure following hepatectomy.
This chapter describes each of the mentioned procedures in
detail.

22.2 Transjugular Liver Biopsy (TJLB)
Transjugular liver biopsy (TJLB) is considered in patients
with a diffuse liver disease where percutaneous liver biopsy
is contraindicated or in conjunction with other procedures
requiring transjugular access, such as hemodynamic monitoring and HVPG measurement, TIPS, or HV angioplasty.
The two most common indications are coagulopathy and signicant ascites. Other indications include increased bleeding
risk conditions, such as hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasis, peliosis hepatis, suspected hepatic amyloidosis, or
morbid obesity. Although not usually indicated, in some circumstances, TJLB may be considered for biopsy of the focal
lesion in the vicinity of one of the hepatic veins [1, 2]. The
diagnostic yield of TJLB ranges from 85 to 100% [3, 4].
The contraindications to TJLB are uncorrectable severe
coagulopathy and thrombosis of bilateral jugular veins.
22.2.1 Patient Preparation
A preliminary USG is done to conrm the patency of IJV, the
diffuse nature of the liver disease, the amount of ascites, and
most importantly, the patency of hepatic veins. It is advisable
to drain moderate to gross ascites before the procedure.
Although a low bleeding risk procedure, INR should be corrected to 2–3, and platelets should be transfused if <20,000/
mm3 [5].
22.2.2 Procedure
TJLB is performed in a uoroscopic suite under local anesthesia with or without conscious sedation. Intraprocedural
vitals, oxygen saturation, and cardiac rhythm are monitored
to detect tabletop complications.
Steps
• After USG-guided IJV access, the hepatic vein (HV) is
catheterized using a combination of a 5F multipurpose
(MPA) catheter and a 0.035″ hydrophilic guidewire. Right
HV is preferred as it has a relatively straighter course and
the least acute angulation. Different-shaped catheters,
such as C2 or reverse curve catheters, may be attempted
in case of an acute angle of entry into HV.
• A hepatic venogram is taken after HV cannulation to deter-
mine its patency. Over the guidewire, an occlusion balloon
catheter (Swan-Ganz catheter) is placed in the HV (within
1–3cm of IVC). Free HV and balloon- occluded HV pressure (~wedge HV pressure) are measured to calculate
HVPG (hepatic venous pressure gradient) (Fig.22.1a). The
difference between FHVP and IVC pressure at the level of
HV conuence should be <2mm Hg.
• The hydrophilic guidewire is exchanged with a stiff
guidewire, and a 9F vascular sheath is advanced into the
HV. The TJLB stiff cannula (LABS-100; Cook Inc.,
Bloomington, IN) is advanced within the sheath, and its
tip is positioned 2–3 cm into the liver from the hepatic
vein ostium. Breath-hold at deep inspiration may facilitate the negotiation of the stiff cannula into the HV.
• With the patient holding his breath, the stiff cannula is
turned (anteriorly if in the right hepatic vein and to the right
if in the middle hepatic vein) to wedge against the liver
parenchyma. The Tru-Cut biopsy needle (18/19G-60cm
quick core biopsy needle) is advanced ahead of the stiffening cannula, and a biopsy is taken (Fig.22.1b).
• Usually, 3–4 passes are made for adequate samples [6]. A
specimen of either 15mm in length or containing at least
six complete portal tracts is considered adequate [1–4].
• After the biopsy, a check hepatic venogram is done through
the sheath to exclude contrast extravasation, if any.
• Finally, the sheath is removed, and the IJV access site is
secured with compression.
