BACKGROUND/AIMS: Advanced @entity157 usually invades the portal vein, forming @entity5 thrombi. Invasion of the @entity1157 , i.e., intrabile @entity5 growth or @entity1126 is rare. @entity1 with @entity1126 present with @entity3883 , @entity490 or @entity7252 . @entity7252 due to @entity1126 is sometimes massive and fatal. The purpose of our study was to evaluate the effectiveness of @entity1416 for @entity7252 caused by @entity1126 . METHODOLOGY: Between 1993 January and 2000 @entity1416 was performed in 4 @entity1 with @entity7252 and @entity360 from @entity1126 . RESULTS: In all 4 @entity1 , @entity1416 was successfully performed and resulted in cessation of @entity548 . One @entity1 had recurrent @entity7252 , which was controlled by another @entity1416 . Three @entity1 were discharged from hospital after @entity1416 . @entity1 died of @entity1578 or @entity5 5 to 7 months after the onset of @entity7252 , although @entity7252 had been fully controlled. CONCLUSIONS: Transcatheter @entity1416 seemed to be effective for the control of massive @entity7252 caused by @entity1126 associated with @entity157 .
