ABSTRACT

Transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) is a method that mainly uses palliative treatment of hepatocellular car-cinoma and liver metastasis from colorectal carcinoma. We reported a case who achieved an obvious response in metastases from renal cell carcinoma with sequential administered systemic treatment and TACE, in addition to a long term survival. Transarterial chemoembolization can be an optional addition to systemic treatment for cytore-duction of liver metastasis from renal cell cancer. (Gazi Med J 2011; 22: 130-2)
