3. Background – Hepatocellular Carcinoma (HCC)
6th leading cause of cancer
worldwide
Ranked #3 most common cancer-related
deaths
Etiologies:
Hep. B/C (80%)
Cirrhosis
Aflatoxins, Heridatory Hemachromatosis
Curative Resection (10% – 30%)
Nonresectable treatment
Transplant
Transarterial Chemoembolization
Radiofrequency Abalation
4. Background – Transarterial Chemobolization
Transarterial Chemoembolization (TACE) Goal:
Block branch arteries feeding tumors
Reduce blood supply to lesion, induce ischemia
Response measured based on tissue necrosis %
Beads, microspheres, gelatin sponges, coils, etc.
Enhance tumor response via selective chemotherapy
Types: Bland, DEB-Tace, C-Tace
“Survival probabilities at 1 year and 2 years … 82% and 63% for
chemoembolisation, and 63% and 27% for control” 1

symptomatic treatment in patients with unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma: a randomised

5. Background - Milestones
1978 – first embolization of hepatic neoplasm

resection of the "unresectable" hepatic tumor. Surgery. 1978;83(3):319-22.

treat HCC

carcinoma--a randomized controlled trial. Gastroenterology. 1988;94(2):453-6.
2002 – first publication on TACE outcomes to treat HCC
via radial artery
Shiozawa S, Tsuchiya A, Endo S, et al. Transradial approach for transcatheter arterial chemoembolization in
patients with hepatocellular carcinoma: comparison with conventional transfemoral approach. J Clin
Gastroenterol. 2003;37(5):412-7.
2012 – first trial on TACE to treat HCC w/ same-day
discharge (Transfemoral Approach)
Prajapati HJ, Rafi S, El-rayes BF, Kauh JS, Kooby DA, Kim HS. Safety and feasibility of same-day discharge of
patients with unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma treated with doxorubicin drug-eluting bead transcatheter
chemoembolization. J Vasc Interv Radiol. 2012;23(10):1286-93.e1.
6. Background – Current Status of TACE for HCC
# of Tace cases performed a year
Most centers perform TACE with at least 1 day admission
Concerns: access site complications, post-embolization syndrome,
or fulminant liver failure
2014 - Same day discharge feasible in 89.5% of TACE
cases to treat HCC with no emergency readmission rates
at 30 days (n = 266)1
Transfemoral Access
Average post-procedural recovery time prior to discharge: 6
Hours
Hospital reimbursements for TACE largely lump-sum
1. Nasser F, Cavalcante RN, Galastri FL, et al. Safety and feasibility of same-day discharge of patients
with hepatocellular carcinoma treated with transarterial chemoembolization with drug-eluting beads
in a liver transplantation program. J Vasc Interv Radiol. 2014;25(7):1012-7.
7. Purpose
– Does Transradial Access help facilitate same-day
discharge for patients undergoing TACE to treat
HCC? ????
8. Materials and Methods
Retrospective analysis of 21 continuous patients selected
for same-day TACE from 2/2014 to 7/2014
12/21 treated via TRA

Asymptomatic
Immediate Ambulation
14. Study Limitations
Fluoroscopy Time
25.1 minutes for TACE via Transradial Access versus
17.1 minutes via Transfemoral Access
Learning curve
Small Sample Size
Theoretical risk of cerebral infarction secondary to arch
manipulation – felt to be exceedingly low based on
cardiology studies
15. TRA use in Same-day Discharge for HCC TACE
Patient comfort
Hemostasis in 1-2 hours
Immediate post-procedure ambulation
At least 25% faster post-procedure discharge
Patient preference
Lower overall access site complication rates
Faster Discharge
Reduced FTEs required to manage patient recovery
Potential source of cost savings
1. Posham R, Fischman AM, et al. Transradial approach for peripheral and visceral interventions: a
single center review of safety and feasibility in the first 1000 cases. (Abstract submitted to SIR 2015)
16. Conclusion
TRA appears to be feasible and safe in HCC
patients undergoing same-day TACE, and
facilitates same-day discharge by minimizing
post-procedural discharge times and allowing
nearly immediate ambulation.
