Liver Embolization Approaches for Tumor Management (LEATUM)

April 11, 2024 updated by: Francesco De Cobelli, IRCCS San Raffaele

Liver Embolization Approaches for Tumor Management - Retrospective and Prospective Analysis of the Short-, Medium-, and Long-term Clinical Course of Patients Subjected to Embolization Treatment for Primary and Secondary Liver Neoplasms

The goal of this evaluate short, medium and long term outcome of the different embolization techniques in patients with primary and secondary hepatic tumors. The main aim is to evaluate progression free survival following embolization in this study population or evaluate residual hepatic volume in cases in which these techniques are used to induce liver regeneration. This study is an observational registry - all patients will follow their normal therapeutic and treatment scheme as per clinical practice, without any additional intervention.
