- Abstract: Objectives: Evaluation of the hemostatic effect of trans-arterial embolization on patients with advanced oral cavity cancer who had bleeding complications while undergoing definitive concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT). Additionally, assess the effect of trans-arterial embolization on treatment response following concurrent chemoradiotherapy, as well as overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) in the group of patients following the intervention. Method: From September 2018–June 2021, a retrospective descriptive study was conducted on 16 patients with inoperable, locally advanced oral cavity cancer who received definitive concurrent chemoradiotherapy, experienced acute bleeding complications, and received selective intravascular intervention with various embolization materials at Vietnam National Cancer Hospital. Results: After selective embolization, 16/16 patients ceased bleeding; 1 patient re-bled for the second time after 3 weeks. The average duration of chemoradiotherapy interruption due to intervention was 6.7 days. After CCRT, 15/16 (93.75%) patients achieved a response, with 9/16 (56.25%) patients achieving a complete response. The median OS was 14 months (range, 3–26 months), and the median PFS was 10 months (range, 3–20 months). There were no significant complications, particularly neurological side effects. Conclusions Tumor bleeding is a common and serious complication of CCRT treatment in patients with locally advanced oral cavity cancer. Embolization is a safe and effective method of controlling acute bleeding that has no adverse effect on the outcome of definitive concurrent chemoradiotherapy. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
