Abstract PDF: Surgical resection is not candidate for advanced stage hepatocellular cacinoma with portal vein thrombosis, but transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE) or radiotherapy can be considered as palliative treatment option. We experienced a 44-old-male who has stage Ⅳa hepatocellular carcinoma. We performed TACE and 3-dimensional conformal radiotherapy for hepatocellular carcinoma and portal vein thrombosis. Because follow up image study showed no viable tumor, we then performed surgical resection. Surgical specimen also showed complete tumor necrosis.

Abstract PDF: Recently, radiotherapy is considered as one of the palliative treatment modalities for patients with hepatocellular carcinoma. In the adevent of 3-dimensional conformal radiotherapy, liver can be treated with high dose radiotherapy without increment of complication. We report two cases of hepatocellular carcinoma with main portal vein thrombosis, who were treated with 3D-CRT and showed promising outcome.
