Does anyone have any experience of having this procedure to enlarge residual liver to enable possible surgery?

Hi Landgirl88. I just dropped by and noticed you've not had a reply from the members as yet. I have a different type of cancer so I can't help, I'm sorry to say.

You could perhaps find out more details by calling the Macmillan Support helpline, number is shown below.

Sending you all the best, B xx

Hi, I had a portal vein embolisation last week. The next step is scan after 6 weeks and if successful I will have a liver re section - keeping fingers crossed.
