Frequency of recanalization of shunt, complete occlusion of the shunt,side effects, complications, and survival rates were analyzed between the two groups.RESULTS: The occlusion rate of APS after initial treatment in ethanol group was 70.3%(45/64), and recanalization rate of 1 month after embolization was 17.8%(8/45),and complete occlusion rate was 82.8%(53/64).Those in Gelfoam group were 63.6%(21/33), 85.7%(18/21), and 18.2%(6/33).There were significant differences in recanalization rate and complete occlusion rate between the two groups (P<0.05).The survival rates in ethanol group were 78% at 6 months,49% at 12 months, 25% at 24 months, whereas those in Gelfoam group were 58% at 6 months, 23% at 12 months,15% at 24 months.The ethanol group showed significantly better survival than Gelfoam group (P<0.05). In the ethanol group, there was a significant prolongation of survival in patients with monofocal HCC (P<0.05) and Child class A (P<0.05).There were no significant differences in survival rate in the Gelfoam group with regard to the number of tumor and Child class (P>0.05). The incidence rate of abdominal pain during procedure in ethanol group was 82.8%.There was no significant difference in postembolization syndromes between two groups. Procedure-related hepatic failure did not occur in ethanol group.CONCLUSION: Ethanol embolization for patients with HCC and severe APS is efficacious and safe, and may contribute to prolongation of the life span versus Gelfoam embolization.展开更多
