Zusammenfassung

Die Mikrosphärentechnologie mit transarterieller Applikation von Radionukliden in den Tumor repräsentiert eine neue Generation von Therapeutika in der interventionellen Radiologie. So erlaubt die intrahepatische Applikation von radioaktiven Mikrosphären über die Arteria hepatica eine lokal ablative Behandlung auch diffuser und multifokaler Lebertumoren, die bisher nur einer systemischen Therapie zugänglich waren. Derzeit sind zwei Produkte für die selektive interne Radiotherapie (SIRT) kommerziell erhältlich. Diese bestehen aus dem radioaktiven Nuklid Yttrium-90, das an Glas- oder Kunstharz-Mikrosphären gebunden ist. Die Indikationen, die technische Durchführung und die Ergebnisse der Radioembolisation beim hepatozellulären Karzinom (HCC) werden in dieser Übersichtsarbeit ausführlich diskutiert.

Abstract

Microsphere-based radioembolization represents a new generation of therapeutics in interventional oncology. The intrahepatic application of radioactive microspheres via the hepatic artery allows locoregional therapy of diffuse or multifocal liver tumors, for which to date systemic therapy was the only remaining option. The current standard for this selective internal radiotherapy or radioembolization is yttrium-90 glass or resin microspheres. This review discusses the indications, the technique, and the therapeutic results of microsphere-based radioembolization.

Key words

SIRT - radioembolization - embolization - interventional procedures - liver - HCC
