PURPOSE To calculate the cost-effectiveness of hepatic arterial chemoembolization (HACE) for the treatment of colorectal liver metastases (CLM) over a range of survival benefits and to determine the survival benefit that HACE must confer to meet three thresholds of cost-effectiveness. MATERIALS AND METHODS A spreadsheet model was used to estimate the marginal direct cost of HACE compared with palliative care from a payer's perspective. Medicare reimbursement amounts represented costs, while… 
Colorectal liver metastases: regional chemotherapy via transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) and hepatic chemoperfusion: an update
TLDR
An overview of the techniques, indications and results of regional chemotherapy, which comprises transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) and chemoperfusion of colorectal liver metastases, is provided.
The clinical effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of ablative therapies in the management of liver metastases: systematic review and economic evaluation.
TLDR
There is currently limited high-quality research evidence upon which to base any firm decisions regarding ablative therapies for liver metastases, with microwave ablation being associated with reduced cost but also with poorer outcome than surgery.

Complications of image-guided transcatheter hepatic chemoembolization of primary and secondary tumours of the liver.
TLDR
Data show that diabetes mellitus and the presence of bilioenteric anastomosis are risk factors for developing complications after TACE, and the use of new drug-eluting microspheres did not increase the risk of complications.
Treatment response to transcatheter arterial embolization and chemoembolization in primary and metastatic tumors of the liver.
TLDR
Although an association of response with improved survival was not demonstrated, large cohort studies are necessary to further define this relationship and TACE appears to be superior to TAE.
Transarterial chemoembolisation (TACE) using irinotecan-loaded beads for the treatment of unresectable metastases to the liver in patients with colorectal cancer: an interim report
TLDR
Chemoembolization using Irinotecan loaded beads was safe and effective in the treatment of patients as demonstrated by a minimal complication rate and acceptable tumor response.
Transhepatic arterial chemoembolization with oxaliplatin-eluting microspheres (OEM-TACE) for unresectable hepatic tumors.
TLDR
TACE with oxaliplatin-loaded microspheres is a safe and feasible treatment without major adverse events and with a favorable pharmacokinetic profile.

Selective chemoembolization in the management of hepatic metastases in refractory colorectal carcinoma
TLDR
Chemoembolization of hepatic metastases in colorectal cancer should be further evaluated; it may be beneficial in patients who have failed systemic chemotherapy, have a good performance status, and have metastatic disease confined to the liver.

TLDR
Selective chemoembolization is recommended for treatment of patients with colorectal metastases to the liver, a resectable primary tumor, and no evidence of other metastatic disease.
Hepatic artery chemoembolization or embolization for primary and metastatic liver tumors: Post‐treatment management and complications
TLDR
Complications and patient management issues associated with hepatic arterial chemoembolization and embolization used to treat liver malignancies and characterizes patient survival based on histologic tumor type are described.
A comparison of lipiodol chemoembolization and conservative treatment for unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma.
TLDR
In a group of patients with unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma but without severe liver disease, lipiodol chemoembolization reduced tumor growth, often caused acute liver failure, and did not significantly improve survival.

TLDR
Gelfoam chemoembolization appears to have significant activity in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma and is relatively well tolerated.
