Abstract:Objective: To explore the classification of portal vein tumor thrombus of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) for interventional treatment. Methods: The dynamic enhanced CT or MR imaging features of patients with portal vein tumor thrombus of HCC were analyzed. The portal vein tumor thrombus was divided into 5 types (Ⅰ-Ⅴ) for interventional treatment, including 2 subtypes of type Ⅱ, 3 subtypes of type Ⅲ, and 2 subtypes of type Ⅳ. The patients of type Ⅰ-Ⅳ combined with hepatic arterioportal fistula were classified into type Ⅴ. Then the effect of transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE) combined with portal vein tumor thrombus and radioactive iodine-125 seeds strip implantation was observed. Results: All cases were classified successfully, including 10.2% type Ⅰ, 17.1% type Ⅱ, 53% type Ⅲ, 19.6% type Ⅳ, and 16.2% type Ⅴ with hepatic arterioportal fistula. The portal vein perfusion was improved in 68 cases (93.1%). The follow-up of 1-3 months after operation showed that the tumor thrombus at the site of implantation of iodine-125 particles was significantly atrophic with effective thrombus control. Conclusions: The classification of interventional therapy for HCC complicated with portal vein tumor thrombus is helpful to guide the clinical formulation of individualized interventional therapy strategy, which is worthy of promotion.
