Description

A patient with an Edmondson type I-II hepatocellular carcinoma had, at celiac angiography, a poor arterial supply but a rich portal supply as observed at percutaneous transhepatic portography, an observation not previously reported in this disease. The importance of demonstrating the vascular supply of the tumor previous to planned intravascular treatment is obvious. (orig.)
