Abstract | OBJECTIVE: By using lingual artery chemoembolization on the basis of detailed basic studies to search an additional way for treatment of certain tongue carcinoma. METHODS: Study of lingual artery cast specimens in post-mortem human was processed. Patients with tongue carcinoma were chemoembolized with Carboplatinum microcapsules. RESULTS:
Microcapsule embolism located approximately at the fifth to the sixth branches level of deep lingual artery. Effective clinical outcomes complied with the anatomy. CONCLUSION: Lingual artery chemoembolization with microcapsuled Carboplatinum of 214.0 +/- 48.0 microm showed nice efficacy in therapy of mid-tongue carcinoma.
