Portal vein branch embolization in patients with primary inoperable liver tumors

Abstract

PVE has become an established procedure in stage liver procedures, due to its potential to facilitate operability of primary and secondary liver tumors. In order to improve the outcomes, attention must be paid to the post-PVE growth of the liver parenchyma and further assessment of oncological treatment approaches during the pre- and post- PVE period, with the aim to reduce liver and extra-liver malignant progression rates prior to the liver resection procedure.
