Fig. 2. —54-year-old woman with liver metastasis from breast cancer in
whom port-catheter was placed with original fixed catheter tip technique.
Arteriogram via port obtained just after implanting port-catheter system shows
that indwelling port-catheter system is precisely implanted percutaneously.
All hepatic arterial branches are shown. Distal tip of catheter is fixed to
gastroduodenal artery with four microcoils and mixture of n-butyl
cyanoacrylate and Lipiodol (iodized oil, Guerbet) (thick arrows).
Distal lumen of indwelling catheter was occluded with microcoil (large
arrowhead). Note that right gastric artery (short thin arrows),
posterosuperior pancreaticoduodenal artery (long thin arrow), and
aberrant left gastric artery (small arrowhead) are embolized with
microcoils.
