Transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) is considered the gold standard for the treatment of unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in patients with a preserved liver function and in the absence of clear extrahepatic tumor spread. This review article deals with the radiological and clinical workup, the interventional technique of chemoembolization for HCC and gives an overview of the common as well as some rare and dramatic complications of TACE. Finally, some new trends and advances in clinical research with regard to the interventional management of HCC are discussed.
经动脉化疗栓塞术（TACE）被认为是治疗肝功能良好且无明确肝外肿瘤扩散的不可切除肝细胞癌（HCC）患者的金标准。这篇综述文章探讨了放射学和临床检查、HCC化疗栓塞的介入技术，并概述了TACE的常见以及一些罕见和严重的并发症。最后，讨论了HCC介入治疗方面临床研究的一些新趋势和进展。
