One case of intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma amenable to resection after radioembolization

Figure 1 Magnetic resonance imaging. A: MRI before treatment revealing a large intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma and 2 small satellites nodules; there was no clear margin with the right hepatic vein (arrows); B: After systemic chemotherapy and one intra-arterial injection of 90Y-resin microspheres, the tumor size decreased, the tumor appeared less vascularized, and the margin between the tumor and hepatic vein appeared free (arrows).

Figure 2 Pathologic examination. Pathologic examination of the resected specimen exhibiting multiple microspheres mainly in the vessels (arrows), the microspheres were surrounded by intense fibrosis (black arrow heads) with tumor cells only on the tumor periphery (white arrow head).
