Core Tip

Core Tip: Transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) is commonly used for treating hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). The complications of TACE include liver rupture, liver abscess, etc. We report a patient treated with TACE for HCC who developed liver abscess and tracheal fistula. Drainage for liver abscess by needle puncture under ultrasonic guiding could relieve the liver abscess.
