Liver abscess following radioembolization with yttrium-90 microspheres

Wiener klinische Wochenschrift, 2014
Radioembolization with yttrium-90 microspheres is an accepted and useful intervention model with minimal invasion in both primary and secondary liver malignancies. Radioembolization may lead to some complications. Liver abscess is a rare complication that can occur several weeks after radioembolization treatment of liver tumor with yttrium-90 ...

Yttrium-90 Resin Microspheres and their Use in the Treatment of Intrahepatic Cholangiocarcinoma

Future Oncology, 2017
Intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC) is a severe and rapidly progressive hepatic tumor. Surgery is often impracticable due to locally advanced presentation. On the other hand, chemotherapy has demonstrated only limited effectiveness. For these reasons, liver-directed therapies have been successfully applied for treating ICC.

Selective intraarterial radionuclide therapy with yttrium-90 (Y-90) microspheres for hepatic neuroendocrine metastases: Initial experience at a single center [PDF]

Vojnosanitetski Pregled, 2011
Background/Aim. Selective intraarterial radionuclide therapy (SIRT) with Yttrium-90 (Y-90) microspheres is also known as radioembolization and delivers high doses of radiation to hepatic tumors with minimum healthy liver exposure.

Internal dosimetry for radioembolization therapy with Yttrium-90 microspheres. [PDF]

J Appl Clin Med Phys, 2017
AbstractThe absorbed doses in the liver and adjacent viscera in Yttrium‐90 radioembolization therapy for metastatic liver lesions are not well‐documented. We sought for a clinically practical way to determine the dosimetry of this advent treatment. Six different female XCAT BMIs and seven different male XCAT BMIs were generated.

Radioembolization of Yttrium-90 Microspheres for Hepatic Malignancy [PDF]

Seminars in Interventional Radiology, 2008
The liver represents a frequent site for primary and secondary neoplasia. Cytoreductive techniques positively influence the outcome of disease progression in these patients. Transhepatic arterial radioembolotherapy utilizing yttrium-90 microspheres represents a recently available in situ therapy that has shown encouraging results in the treatment of ...

YTTRIUM-90 MICROSPHERE RADIOEMBOLIZATION FOR UNRESECTABLE CHOLANGIOCARCINOMA

, 2015
The term radioembolization defines those procedures in which intra-arterially injected radioactive microspheres are used for internal radiation purposes. The aim of this procedure is to selectively target radiation to liver tumors and to limit the dose to the normal liver parenchyma.

Yttrium-90 microspheres: a review of its emerging clinical indications. [PDF]

Liver Cancer, 2015
<b><i>Background: </i></b>Many patients with liver malignancies are not candidates for resection, and systemic therapies are often not effective. Radioembolization (RE) is an alternative treatment for this group of patients. The safety and efficacy of RE with yttrium 90 (Y90) in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) or ...
