Aim
To analyze the sample of pregnant patients who underwent pulmonary perfusion scintigraphy to rule out the pulmonary embolism (PE) suspicion during the acute COVID-19 infection hospitalization period in our hospital.
Material and methods
SPECT scintigraphy with a reduced dose (111 MBq) of 99mTc-macroaggregated albumin was performed in all of the patients (n = 5). The obtained images were interpreted by comparing the findings with the radiological images according to the PISAPED criteria.
Results
Only one of the 5 patients was diagnosed with PE. Two patients obtained pathological findings of the scintigraphy attributable to radiological alterations due to COVID-19 pneumonia, and the other 2 had normal pulmonary perfussion.
Conclusion
Given the non-specific features of the clinical manifestations and D-dimer values in COVID-19, as well as their similarity to those of PE, the pulmonary perfusion scintigraphy plays a crucial role in the screening of PE in these patients due to its high sensitivity and lower irradiation compared to CT. Despite the limited number of patients, the results obtained have special relevance related to the absence of scientific publications on this group of patients within the context of COVID-19 pandemic exceptional situation.

Aim
To determine the results of radioembolization transarterial (TARE), in the treatment of liver tumors, a retrospective evaluation was performed after 112 TARE with 90Y-microspheres administered in 82 patients in a single hospital, analyzing efficacy and safety, after a follow-up greater than or equal to 1 year post-TARE in all patients, and evaluating the possible relationship between treatment response and patient survival.
Material and methods
We have administered 57 single TARE and 55 multiple TARE in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (53), liver metastases (25) and cholangiocarcinoma (4), with prior multidisciplinary evaluation, clinical, angiographic and gammagraphic (planar/SPECT/SPECT-CT with 99mTc-MAA), multicompartment model (MIRD equations), post-TARE screening (planar/SPECT/SPECT-CT), clinical and radiological follow-up, tumor response evaluation (mRECIST criteria) and Kaplan–Meier analysis to determine progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS).
Results
Therapeutic intention was palliative (82%) and as bridge to liver transplantation/surgical resection (17%). We obtained response (R), complete or partial, in 65.9% of cases. One year after TARE 34.7% of patients with R and 19.2% of non-R were progression-free (p: 0.003), with OS of 80% for R and 37.5% for non-R (p: 0.001). Survival analysis showed median OS of 18 months (95% CI 15.7–20.3) for R and 9 months (95% CI 6.1–11.8) for non-R (p: 0.03). We found mild (27.6%) and severe (5.3%) side effects, all of them resolved, without higher incidence after multiple TARE.
Conclusion
TARE with 90Y-microspheres, in appropriately selected patients with liver tumors, provides therapeutic efficacy and low rate of toxicity, with higher PFS and OS in patients with TARE response compared to those who did not respond.

Surgical resection is considered the curative treatment par excellence for patients with primary or metastatic liver tumors. However, less than 40% of them are candidates for surgery, either due to non-modifiable factors (comorbidities, age, liver dysfunction...), or to the invasion or proximity of the tumor to the main vascular requirements, the lack of a future liver remnant (FLR) adequate to maintain postoperative liver function, or criteria of tumor size and number. In these last factors, hepatic radioembolization has been shown to play a role as a presurgical tool, either by hypertrophy of the FLR or by reducing tumor size that manages to reduce tumor staging (term known as “downstaging”). To these is added a third factor, which is its ability to apply the test of time, which makes it possible to identify those patients who present progression of the disease in a short period of time (both locally and at distance), avoiding a unnecessary surgery. This paper aims to review RE as a tool to facilitate liver surgery, both through the experience of our center and the available scientific evidence.
