A coaxial catheter system using the Tracker Hi-Flow catheter was utilized to perform 38 hepatic arterial embolizations in 20 patients. These embolizations would not have been feasible if the ability to superselectively catheterize the segmental arteries and negotiate tortuous vessels had not been available. This is a valuable technique for use in superselective hepatic arterial embolizations.
