Description
Objective: In order to improve the efficiency and to reduce the complication of interventional treatment in liver hemangioma. The authors looked for the new way of artery embolization. Methods: 57 cases were randomly divided into two groups from December 1994 to June 1998. 1 group: 25 cases were treated with PYM and Lipidol-Morrhuate Sodium, 2 group: 22 cases were performed with SM and Lipidol-Morrhuate Sodium. All patients were followed-up for 6 to 48 months. Results: The results showed that the two methods can strongly induce arterial sclerosis and fibrosis reducing the mass of liver hemangioma and weakened the signal of blood inside but the group with SM and Lipidol-Morrhuate presenting less reactions and fewer complications. Conclusion: The results suggested that the method of treating with PYM and Lipidol-Morrhuate Sodium is more efficiency
