Local tumor recurrence after transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) in a 72-year-old woman with hepatocellular carcinoma. (A) Enhanced computed tomography (CT) scan shows a 2.6-cm-sized hypervascular nodule at segment 8 of the right hepatic lobe (arrow). (B) Superselective TACE was performed at the anterior superior segmental artery of the right hepatic artery until complete tumor staining (arrow). The arrowhead indicate another tumor staining. (C) Cone-beam CT scan obtained immediately after TACE shows dense iodized oil accumulation in the tumor (arrow). (D) Enhanced CT scan obtained 1 month after TACE shows a defect of iodized oil accumulation in the tumor (arrow) (intratumoral recurrence). (E) Another branch of the anterior superior segmental artery of the right hepatic artery (arrow) was selected, and a second TACE was performed. (F) Unenhanced CT scan obtained 1.5 months after the second TACE shows dense iodized oil accumulation in the tumor (arrow) without any defect.
