[Successful Treatment with TACE and RFA for a Hepatocellular Carcinoma Case with Lung Metastasis].

We report a hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC)case with lung metastasis that was successfully treated with transarterial chemoembolization(TACE)and percutaneous radiofrequency ablation(RFA). A man in his 60s took right robe liver resection for HCC after TACE for its rupture. Lung metastasis occurred at S1+2 and S6 in the left lung, and an adverse event interrupted standard molecular target therapies. Because extrahepatic metastasis had been seen only in these two locations for a long time, TACE was performed for both metastases. The feeders for both lesions were each intercostal artery, and controlling the drug inflow was necessary to avoid drug influx into the spinal cord branches when S6 metastasis was treated. The viable lesion remained in the S6 lesion, so RFA was added for both lung metastases. 100% tumor necrosis has been observed since the RFA.
