A small percentage of @entity1 suitable for radical surgery require us to introduce alternative palliative methods prolonging the good quality of life in @entity1 with @entity96 . Apart from thermoablation or cryo-ablation, one of the alternative methods with palliative influence on @entity5 is the chemoembolization of @entity5 . A group of 18 @entity1 , who underwent chemo-embolization at the Surgical Clinic and Radiodiagnostic Clinic, Medical Faculty, Charles University in Pilsen from 2007 to 2008, were assessed from the point of view of complications, overall survival and the @entity1 ' life quality. The most common complication was temperature and @entity158 in the right infracostal area in connection with the performed procedure. The @entity1 ' quality of life after chemo-embolization was very good and the time of hospitalization was only 3.5 days on average. We had to perform the procedure repeatedly in 30% of cases. The chemo-embolization was done on inoperable liver metastases of @entity14 and on inoperable @entity157 (Tab. 1, Fig. 2, Ref. 5).
