Management of postsurgical recurrence of hepatocellular carcinoma with rhenium 188-HDD labeled iodized oil.

Surgical resection with partial hepatectomy is the treatment of choice in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma ( HCC). However, after recurrence, which is common, such patients have limited therapeutic options. In the present report, transarterial radionuclide therapy (TART) with rhenium 188 HDD-labeled Lipiodol was used to treat a patient with postsurgical recurrence of HCC. The patient tolerated therapy well and the lesions were completely ablated with a single dose of 188Re; the patient is free of disease for 14 months. TART with 188Re-HDD Lipiodol appears to be a promising new therapy in case of HCC recurrence after partial hepatectomy and requires further investigation.[1]
