EVBT combined with TACE in patients with HCC with-type IV PVTT. The PVTT involved the superior mesenteric vein in preoperative enhanced CT, as shown by the arrows (A). The main portal vein and superior mesenteric vein were filled with tumor thrombus in preoperative superior mesenteric venography (B). The superior mesenteric vein and main portal vein could be effectively displayed in postoperative superior mesenteric venography(C). The 125I seeds were shown in the fluoroscopy after EVBT (D). The arrows point to the stained tumor blood vessels in intraoperative angiography of the celiac trunk (E). The stent was well placed with good patency (F)
