Techniques & Outcomes of Portal Vein Embolization

How is portal vein embolization (PVE) pushing the boundaries of liver tumor resectability, and what does it take to induce hypertrophy without compromising the remnant liver? In this episode of the BackTable Podcast, interventional radiologist Dr. David Madoff of Yale University joins Dr. Michael Barraza to discuss the pathophysiological rationale, technical considerations, and emerging clinical paradigms of performing PVE to augment the future liver remnant (FLR) prior to resection and reduce the risk of postoperative liver failure.
