6 months' follow-up in 16 (50%) patients, while at 12 months' follow-up this response decreased to 13 (40%) tumours. 6 (18%), patients showed approximately 60-90% reduction of arterialization, while only in 2 (0.06%) patients no response was observed and in one patient disease progression was observed at three months followup. Conclusions: In terms of the effect on the tumour response, combined TACE + PEI therapy was an effective in controlling the disease process.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
