Trans-arterial chemoembolization and radioembolization for treatment of intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma

View through CrossRef
Trans-arterial therapies performed by interventional radiology, including chemoembolization and radioembolization, have been increasingly utilized for the treatment of unresectable intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma. There is increasing evidence demonstrating the safety and efficacy of these interventions in patients with advanced disease. This review provides an overview of trans-arterial chemoembolization and radioembolization for unresectable intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma, summarizes current evidence, and explores future directions for locoregional therapies.
