Abstract

Catheter-directed embolization of visceral tumors, with the exception of the liver, has received limited attention in the literature. The visceral arterial anatomy can be complex and its understanding is critical for procedure planning and limiting complications. Embolization of splenic neoplasms is exceedingly rare. Preoperative embolization for adrenal, renal, and gut tumors plays an important role in select patients. Embolization has been used successfully in the treatment of pancreatic insulinomas and in limited cases of unresectable pancreatic adenocarcinomas. Embolization of bleeding visceral tumors can be accomplished with a high likelihood of success.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
