Rabin Medical Center offers advanced Portal Vein Embolization (PVE) using modern interventional radiology techniques and individualized hepatobiliary care plans. Established in 1996, the JCI accredited hospital is located in Petah Tikva, Israel and has 1300 beds, providing comprehensive liver and interventional radiology services for local and international patients.
Portal Vein Embolization (PVE) is a minimally invasive procedure used to redirect blood flow within the liver before certain major liver surgeries. During the procedure, selected branches of the portal vein supplying the portion of the liver planned for removal are intentionally blocked. This encourages the remaining liver tissue to enlarge and increase its functional capacity before surgery, potentially allowing patients with an initially insufficient future liver remnant to undergo planned liver resection.
Sheba Medical Center offers advanced Portal Vein Embolization (PVE) using modern interventional radiology techniques and individualized hepatobiliary care plans. Established in 1948, the JCI accredited hospital is located in Ramat Gan, Israel and has 1900 beds, providing comprehensive liver and interventional radiology services for local and international patients.

Kaplan Medical Centre provides specialised Portal Vein Embolization (PVE) with a focus on precise portal vein targeting, careful assessment of liver reserve, advanced image guidance, and coordinated hepatobiliary care. Established in 1953, the JCI accredited hospital is located in Rehovot, Israel and operates 1100 beds, with modern interventional radiology, liver imaging, oncology, and surgical infrastructure.
Portal Vein Embolization can be used as a preoperative strategy for selected patients undergoing extensive liver resection, particularly when the anticipated future liver remnant may be too small to provide adequate postoperative liver function. Treatment planning considers liver volume, underlying liver disease, tumor distribution, portal vein anatomy, and the proposed extent of resection. Detailed imaging and multidisciplinary assessment help determine whether PVE is appropriate and whether sufficient liver growth has occurred before proceeding with definitive liver surgery.
Assuta Hospital provides specialised Portal Vein Embolization (PVE) with a focus on precise portal vein targeting, careful assessment of liver reserve, advanced image guidance, and coordinated hepatobiliary care. Established in 1934, the JCI accredited hospital is located in Tel Aviv, Israel and operates 300 beds, with modern interventional radiology, liver imaging, oncology, and surgical infrastructure.

Tel Aviv, Israel
At Tel Aviv Sourasky Medical Center -Ichilov Hospital, Portal Vein Embolization (PVE) is performed using specialized interventional radiology techniques and detailed liver imaging. Established in 1963, this JCI accredited hospital in Tel Aviv, Israel has 1500 beds and offers advanced hepatobiliary, oncology, surgical, and interventional radiology services.
Portal Vein Embolization may be considered for selected patients who require major liver resection but have an inadequate volume of healthy liver expected to remain after surgery. Using image guidance, an interventional radiologist accesses the portal venous system and delivers embolic materials into targeted portal vein branches. This redirects portal blood flow toward the future liver remnant, stimulating compensatory growth over the following weeks.
