[Indication for local intra-arterial chemotherapy in malignant liver tumors].
The possibilities for curative treatment of malignant hepatic tumours are: surgical resection, percutaneous local ablation using radiofrequency or laser. In cases of advanced tumors we can choose the vascular ablation including chemoperfusion and chemoembolization and feeding artery occlusion. Combinations of surgical resection or percutaneous ablation with local and systemic chemotherapy provide a better result for patients.
