Abstract

Objective:To investigate the clinical therapeutic effects of pingyangmycin-lipiodol emulsion(PLE)embolization in the treatment of cavernous hemangioma of liver(CHL).Methods:28 cases of CHL were treated with PLE by tran-scatheter arterial embolization with Seldinger techniqne.All cases were followed up 3 to 18 months after the procedure.Results:The iodized oil deposited well after the embolization.The minification of 22 cases(78.6%)of cavernous hemangioma anteroposterior diameter were larger than 50%,and 4 cases(14.3%)were less than 50%,2 cases had no marked change,and no serious complication occurred.Conclusion:It is suggested that PLE intra-hepatic-arterial embolization is effective and safe for treating CHL.
