Cerebral and pulmonary embolisms after transcatheter arterial chemoembolization for hepatocellular carcinoma.

Abstract:

:A cerebral lipiodol embolism is an extremely rare complication of transcatheter arterial chemoembolization for hepatocellular carcinoma. We present a case of cerebral lipiodol embolism that occurred after the third arterial chemoembolization, report the clinical and radiological findings, and review the medical literature.
