Combination of yttrium-90 radioembolization with stereotactic body radiation therapy in the treatment of portal vein tumor thrombosis
Abstract
Portal vein tumor thrombosis (PVTT) from cancer involving the liver carries a dismal prognosis, with median overall survival (OS) ranging from 2 to 5 months. While treatment with yttrium-90 (90Y) radioembolization alone may improve outcomes, overall prognosis remains poor. We hypothesize that the combination of 90Y radioembolization to the parenchymal component of the tumor and stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) to the vascular component...
