Embolization:Technical considerations
Pre-embolization evaluation
Forecient embolization by superselective catheterization,
a pre-procedural computed tomographic (CT) evaluation
is essential. Recent technical advances in CT angiography
makeitpossibletovisualizemajorbranchesoftheaortaand
majorarterialvariationsbeforeprocedures.Evaluationofthe
relationshipbetween arterialanatomyandatargetlesionis
mandatory before embolization. A number of arterial anatomicalvariationsarepossibleforeachorgan.Knowledgeof
individual anatomyis important to achieving the complete
embolizationofatargetlesion,while avoidingunnecessary
complicationsand preservingnormal parenchymaas much
aspossible.
Roadmap and superselective arteriography

Chemoembolization
Basic principle
A normal liver receives a dual supply of blood from the
hepaticarteryandthe portalvein.Approximatelyone-third
of normal hepatic blood ow originates from the hepatic
artery,whiletheothertwo-thirdsoriginatefromtheportal
vein.Aboutone-halfoftheoxygenrequirementoftheliver
is supplied by the portal vein. Conversely, both primary
andsecondary liver tumorsderive90% of their bloodsupplyfromthehepaticartery,withasmaller(10%) contributioncomingfromthe portalvein.22erefore,intra-arterial
agentshavebeenrecommendedforthetargetedtreatmentof
hepatocellularcarcinoma(HCC).Inan experimentalstudy,
intratumoral concentrations of chemotherapeutic agents
increasedtenfoldwhen chemoembolic materialwasadministeredviathehepaticarteryasopposedtotheportalvein.23
Transarterialchemoembolization(TACE)involvestheselectiveintra-arterialdeliveryofchemotherapeuticagentintothe
tumor,followedbytheembolizationofthetumorvascularity
withthe goal of inducing tumor necrosis. e rationale for
chemoembolizationisthatischemiacausedbytheembolizationofarterialfeederssupplyingthetumorhasasynergistic

Lipiodol chemoembolization
In the early 1980s, iodized oil (Lipiodol; Andre Guerbet,
Aulnay-sous-Bois, France), a lymphangiographic dye, was
found to remain selectively in the neovasculature and the
extravascular spaces of liver tumors when injected into the
hepatic artery.30 Since then, TACEbased on Lipiodol mixed
withdierentanticanceragentsor,moreoen,withanemulsion of Lipiodol and anticanceragents followed by Gelfoam
embolization, has been widely used for the management of
unresectablehepatocellularcarcinoma.
When injected into the hepatic artery, Lipiodol persists
selectivelyinatumorforafewweeksormonths, because of
hemodynamic dierences between hypervascular hepatic
tumorsandliverparenchyma,andpresumablybecauseofthe
absenceofKupercellsintumors.22Nakajoetal.havereported
