Fig. 1. Schematic diagram of desired catheter position and occluded vessels for infusion according to Arai et al. [16]. Tip of catheter is located in gastroduodenal artery, and side hole (open arrow), through which anticancer drugs (short thin arrows) infused through port would be distributed to intrahepatic artery branches, is open toward common hepatic artery. Lumen of catheter tip is occluded with microcoil (arrowhead). Catheter tip is tightly fixed in gastroduodenal artery with microcoils (large arrow) and mixture of n-butyl cyanoacrylate and Lipiodol ([iodized oil] Laboratoire Guerbet, Roissy, France) (short solid arrow) placed on outside catheter. Right gastric artery and posterosuperior pancreaticoduodenal artery are embolized with microcoils (curved arrows). F = right gastric artery, C = left gastric artery, A = celiac artery, B = splenic artery, D = common hepatic artery, G = posterosuperior pancreaticoduodenal artery, E = gastroduodenal artery.
