This retrospective study was undertaken to obtain information regarding the survival and toxicities after Yttrium-90 microspheres treatment in patients with primary liver malignancies. Baseline, treatment, and follow-up data were collected and analyzed for 21 patients treated with Yttrium-90
OBJECTIVE
The aim of this study was to assess the effectiveness of yttrium-90 (90 Y) microspheres for the treatment of unresectable metastatic liver neuroendocrine tumors (NET).
METHODS
From February 2006 to September 2015, 36 patients (19 male and 17 female, age 63.6 ± 9.4 years) who underwent 90 Y
BACKGROUND
: The objective of the current study was to determine the safety and efficacy of Yttrium-90 (Y90) microsphere treatment in patients with liver-dominant colorectal metastases.
METHODS
: Seventy-two patients with unresectable hepatic colorectal metastases were treated at a targeted absorbed
OBJECTIVE
To assess the effectiveness of yttrium-90 (90Y) radioembolization in the treatment of unresectable liver metastases of melanoma.
METHODS
PubMed and EMBASE were systemically searched for all English language studies related to 90Y radioembolization for unresectable liver metastases of
The aim of the study was to analyze the safety and efficacy of yttrium-90 ((90)Y) radioembolization in the treatment of unresectable hepatic melanoma metastases refractory to previous systemic/locoregional therapy. Between February 2004 and April 2010, 16 patients with hepatic melanoma metastases
Selective arterial radioembolization with Yttrium-90 (Y-90) microspheres has shown promise for regional management of hepatocellular cancer (HCC). Our objective was to report our early experience with this treatment modality from a nontransplant center. Treatment of patients with HCC was discussed
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the safety and efficacy of yttrium-90 ((90)Y) radioembolization with extended-shelf-life glass microspheres. We postulated that this approach, for the same planned tissue dose of 120 Gy, would increase the embolic load, improve distribution, and result in enhanced tumor
OBJECTIVE
Over the past two decades, several advances have been made in the management of patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and portal vein tumor thrombosis (PVTT). Yttrium-90 ( 90 Y) radioembolization has recently been made a treatment option for patients with HCC and PVTT. However,
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate outcomes of yttrium-90 radioembolization performed with glass-based microspheres in the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) secondary to the hepatitis B virus (HBV).
METHODS
A total of 675 patients treated between January 2006 and July 2014 were reviewed, of which 45
Yttrium-90 microspheres are radioactive particles which are increasingly being employed for treating patients with unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). The procedure is called radioembolization. It involves the injection of micron-sized embolic particles loaded with a radioisotope by use of
OBJECTIVE
Patients with portal vein thrombosis (PVT) and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) have limited treatment options because of increased disease burden and diminished hepatic perfusion. Yttrium-90 ((90)Y) microspheres may be better tolerated than chemoembolization in these patients. The present
OBJECTIVE
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the sixth most common cancer and third leading cause of cancer-related death in the world. The management of unresectable HCC and hepatic metastases from various solid tumors is a clinical dilemma. There is paucity of data on the treatment of unresectable
Yttrium-90 (Y-90) radioembolization is an emerging treatment option for unresectable neuroendocrine liver metastases (NELM). However, the data regarding this treatment are currently limited. This study evaluates the efficacy and tolerability of Y-90 radioembolization and identifies prognostic
OBJECTIVE
Yttrium-90 (Y) radioembolization is increasingly used as a minimally invasive therapy for unresectable liver tumors; however, previous hepatectomy must be considered to avoid excessive hepatic insult. A retrospective analysis was undertaken to investigate the viability of performing
OBJECTIVE
As clinicians who treat hepatocellular carcinoma move yttrium-90 intra-arterial radiotherapy from the palliative setting to the treatment of patients with potentially curable early stage disease, more intense scrutiny of the safety of that procedure is warranted. To demonstrate the
