چكيده لاتين :
Liver metastases from carcinoid tumors
are usually diffuse at the time of diagnosis,
and surgical resection is rarely
feasible. The development and clinical
application of an analog of somatostatin
has provided a novel and frequently
highly effective tool for control of carcinoid tumors;
most patients however, become resistant to
this therapy. Arterial hypervascularization of
most liver metastases from carcinoid tumor argues
in favor of hepatic arterial chemoembolization.
We report here a patient with carcinoid tumor
with liver metastasis who has substantial
tumor regression with hepatic artery chernoembolization
