Objective To summarize the experience of combined treatment of conventional transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (cTACE) and drug-eluting-bead chemoembolization(D-TACE) in a case of advanced hepatocellular carcinoma with intrahepatic metastasis.Methods A patient with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma who was admitted to The Second Affiliated Hospital of Chongqing Medical University in October 2018 was treated with TACE for three times.Results After MDT discussion, three interventional operations were performed on this patient in The Second Affiliated Hospital of Chongqing Medical University. CT examination after the first treatment with cTACE showed that lipiodol deposited in liver lesions and the lesions were more stable than before; after the second treatment with cTACE and D-TACE, CT examination showed more lipiodol deposited in the tumors, and the tumors were more limited and significantly reduced; after the third treatment with cTACE, CT examination showed that the tumors were effectively controlled and no progress was made. This patient was followed-up for 2 months after the fourth cTACE, tumors were effectively controlled and no progress occurred.Conclusions In advanced hepatocellular carcinoma with intrahepatic metastasis, TACE is the best treatment. Combination of D-TACE and cTACE can achieve better clinical efficacy.
