Journal ArticleDOI
Long-term Outcomes of Coil Packing for Visceral Aneurysms: Correlation between Packing Density and Incidence of Coil Compaction or Recanalization
Taku Yasumoto,Keigo Osuga,Hiroshi Yamamoto,Yusuke Ono,Maki Masada,Koji Mikami,Daigo Kanamori,Masahisa Nakamura,Kaisyu Tanaka,Tetsuro Nakazawa,Hiroki Higashihara,Noboru Maeda,Noriyuki Tomiyama +12 more
TL;DR: Coil compaction or recanalization after coil packing for VAAs more often occurs after insufficient embolization with low packing density and in patients with large aneurysms.
Journal ArticleDOI
Current status of embolic agents for liver tumor embolization
Keigo Osuga,Noboru Maeda,Hiroki Higashihara,Shinichi Hori,Tetsuro Nakazawa,Kaishu Tanaka,Masahisa Nakamura,Kentaro Kishimoto,Yusuke Ono,Noriyuki Tomiyama +9 more
TL;DR: The published data suggests that both conventional TACE and DEB-TACE are equally effective for treatment of unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma, when patients are carefully selected.
Journal ArticleDOI
Diagnostic accuracy of C-arm CT during selective transcatheter angiography for hepatocellular carcinoma: comparison with intravenous contrast-enhanced, biphasic, dynamic MDCT
Hiroki Higashihara,Keigo Osuga,Hiromitsu Onishi,Atsushi Nakamoto,Takahiro Tsuboyama,Noboru Maeda,Masatoshi Hori,Tonsok Kim,Noriyuki Tomiyama +8 more
TL;DR: The diagnostic accuracy of CACT was equivalent to that of biphasic CT in the diagnosis of HCC, and TACE can be performed with greater confidence using C-arm CT.
Journal ArticleDOI
Bland Embolization of Hepatocellular Carcinoma Using Superabsorbent Polymer Microspheres
Keigo Osuga,Shinichi Hori,Kumiko Hiraishi,Takashi Sugiura,Yasuhiro Hata,Hiroki Higashihara,Noboru Maeda,Kaname Tomoda,Hironobu Nakamura +8 more
TL;DR: In conclusion, SAP-TAE was a safe and repeatable option as the induction therapy for HCC unamenable to surgery or ablation, despite the high incidence of converting to TACE during the total course.
Journal ArticleDOI
Angiographic evaluation of hepatic arterial damage after transarterial chemoembolization for hepatocellular carcinoma
Noboru Maeda,Keigo Osuga,Koji Mikami,Hiroki Higashihara,Hiromitsu Onishi,Yasuhiro Nakaya,Mitsuaki Tatsumi,Masatoshi Hori,Tonsok Kim,Kaname Tomoda,Hironobu Nakamura +10 more
TL;DR: TACE is more likely to induce HAD in cirrhotic patients with impaired liver function and when a high dose of the chemotherapeutic agent was used.
