Abstract
Percutaneous ethanol injection therapy (PEIT) following percutaneous microwave coagulation therapy (PMCT) was performed in 6 patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in whom neither surgery nor transcatheter arterial embolization was carried out.
One patient has died due to rupture of hepatocellular carcinoma, and the survival period of all patients to date ranges from 10 months to 29 months (mean 26.2 month). Recurrence at the treated site was detected in two patients.
