The dual immunomodulatory network of radiotherapy in hepatocellular carcinoma. Radiotherapy initiates its effects by inducing immunogenic cell death and DNA double‐strand breaks. Immune Activation: Cytosolic DNA from damaged cells activates the cGAS‐STING pathway, triggering IRF3/NF‐κB‐mediated type I interferon production. This enhances dendritic cell

INTERVENTIONAL SURGERY IN PATIENTS WITH BENIGN PROSTATIC HYPERPLASIA AND PROSTATE CANCER
During the period from 2004 to 2014, prostatic artery embolization was performed in 59 patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) and superselective chemoembolization in 36 patients with prostate cancer.

Transcatheter arterial chemoembolization is a technique for provoking ischemia and cytotoxic activity by selectively injecting microspheres containing chemotherapy drugs into vessels supplying a tumor. An 87-year-old female patient on palliative treatment for hepatocellular carcinoma and with indications for chemoembolization underwent preparatory ...

Therapeutic effect and tolerability of gelatin sponge particle-mediated chemoembolization for colorectal liver metastases: a retrospective study [PDF]
Abstract Background Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most common cancers worldwide. The majority (approximately 60%) of patients with CRC will eventually develop liver metastases, which remain the most common cause of mortality in these patients.

Biomaterial‐integrated electroporation establishes a programmable therapeutic interface that coordinates electric‐field modulation, transient or irreversible membrane permeabilization, cargo stabilization, and immune remodeling. This Review highlights how nanocarriers, hydrogels, and bioelectronic interfaces expand electroporation from conventional ...

ABSTRACT Introduction Dynamic Single Photon Emission Computed Tomography (dynSPECT) is an advanced functional imaging modality that enables estimation of temporal changes in radiopharmaceutical distribution and physiological function. While dynSPECT has been employed in several clinical applications, it has not been widely applied to liver imaging ...

Biliary complications after transcatheter arterial chemoembolization for hepatocellular carcinoma
Transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) is considered an effective procedure for liver malignancy. Although the majority of TACE related complications can be treated conservatively, appropriate therapeutic interventions, such as percutaneous/endoscopic ...
