Abstract
OZET Cirrhosis due to delta hepatitis is one of the most important etiologic factors in our country. Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) often develops on the base of cirrhosis. Recently, yttrium-90 radioembolization therapy has been increasingly used in the treatment of HCC. Transarterial infusion of yttrium-90 radioactive microspheres is a new promising method in treating unresectable liver tumors. Herein, we present a 55-year-old male HCC patient who developed HCC due cirrhosis associated with delta hepatitis and was successfully treated with yttrium-90 radioembolization therapy.
