No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Detection of cholangiocellular and hepatocellular carcinomas can be challenging in both radiologic imaging and during surgical resection. Therefore, radioactive seed-guided resection of these tumors, analogously to breast cancer, could be an interesting approach. The investigators present two cases of cirrhotic patients where this method of tumor labelling was used.

DEVICE

Radioactive Seed Implantation

In patients where initially the tumour lesion could not be identified, a radioactive seed was implanted and intraoperatively detected with a geiger counter sonde.
