What is Transarterial Chemoembolization Tace?

Transarterial chemoembolization or TACE Chemotherapy uses anti-cancer (cytotoxic) drugs to destroy cancer cells. This process is used to treat liver cancer but may also be used in patients whose cancer has spread to other areas of the body. It may be used as a standalone treatment or combined with surgery, ablation, chemotherapy, or radiation therapy depending on the number and type of cancers. Cancers that may be treated by TACE are:

  • Primary liver cancer
  • Colon cancer
  • Breast cancer
  • Ocular melanoma, etc.

You may be given a medication called Allopurinol, which may help protect the kidneys from the chemotherapy and the byproducts produced by the dying tumor cells.

The patient can feel a slight pinch when the nurse or technologist inserts a needle into their vein for the IV line to inject the local anesthetic.

The patient can leave the hospital within 48 hours after the procedure and resume their activities within a week.

How is the Procedure Performed?

In this procedure, x-ray equipment, a catheter, and embolic agents are used. The procedure is usually completed within 90 minutes.

Who is the Right Doctor for Transarterial Chemoembolization Tace?

This procedure is performed by a highly-trained interventional radiologist.

What is the Usual Success Rate for this Procedure?

Patients can see improvement in the liver depending on the type of liver cancer. This procedure can improve the quality of life.

CT or MRI will be performed every three months after the procedure to determine how much the tumors shrink and to see if any new tumors arise in the liver.
