There has been no reliable data about clinical outcomes of balloon occluded TACE. Prospective clinical trials are needed.
Function of end-holed balloon catheters: To change the flow direction
Function of end-holed balloon catheters 1. Power injection 2. To avoid reflux 3. Dense Lpiodo accumulation 4. To change the flow direction Function of side-holed balloon cathetersSuperselective injection without superselective catheterization
Real world of microcatheter：Changed to Our trainee ! experienced IRist。
What we can do as the manipulation ?
   
advance of microcatheter great !
However, never forget the key is how to use !
In combination with each other, 80x80=6,400 ways !
If additionally combined with a parent catheter, 80x80x80=512,000 ways !
Though there are still remaining unmet needs, microcatheters have been greatly advanced with various technical innovations.
Low profile, steerable and micro-balloon catheters may open the new world.
However, we should never forget to improve our skills to use them
