Study Arms (1)

Combined Treatment

EXPERIMENTAL

The Combined Treatment: patients undergo a surgical operation of ipsilateral liver lobe devascularization and four weeks later after the operation percutaneous alcohol injection sessions.

Procedure: Combined Treatment

Interventions

This modality of palliative treatment includes initial surgical operation where arterial vascular supply of the tumor carrying liver lobe of the corresponding hepatic artery as well as the extrahepatic collateral arteries (EHCAs) feeding the large HCC (\> 5 cms size) under general anesthesia. Four weeks after the operation the tumor is injeted (intralesionally and intravascularly) with absolute ethanol alcohol injections on regular weekly percutaneous sessions until the tumor become saturated and its vascularity rendered inactive.

Also known as: CILDAT
Combined Treatment
