Transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) for liver cancer. Embolization is a treatment that blocks or slows down the blood supply to tissues or an organ. ... TACE may be used if your liver cancer can't be removed with surgery but it hasn't spread to the major blood vessels in the liver, lymph nodes or other parts of the body ... The treatment chances are slim for her and I feel sorry for her
