The imaging findings of the tumor on ultrasonography and computed tomography were typical of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). During TACE, a well-defined, enhancing cavity appeared unexpectedly in the tumor, and pseudoaneurysm was suspected. As the cavity did not embolize well using additional epirubicin-iodized oil emulsion and porous gelatin particles, more definitive embolization was performed using microcoils to avoid adverse events, such as intratumoral bleeding or rupture of the pseudoaneurysm. Microcoils were placed both distal and proximal to the cavity in the feeding artery, and hepatic angiography after this procedure revealed disappearance of both tumor stain and the cavity.}, pages = {31--36}, title = {A CASE OF HEPATIC TUMOR IN WHICH AN ENHANCING CAVITY APPEARED DURING TRANSCATHETER ARTERIAL CHEMOEMBOLIZATION}, volume = {38}, year = {2011} }
