| Core Tip |
Marked arterio-portal shunt (APS) can be a contraindication for selective internal radiation therapy (SIRT) due to the risk of radiation-induced liver toxicity or pneumonitis. In this study, portal vein embolization (PVE) was performed to close the APS outlet in seven hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients, with complete occlusion achieved in six (n = 6, 6/7). Five patients subsequently completed SIRT. PVE is a safe and effective strategy to reduce intrahepatic shunting in advanced HCC patients with APS, thereby improving eligibility for SIRT. |
