Established in 2012, the JCI accredited hospital is located in Istanbul, Turkey and has 810 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.
At Acibadem Kadikoy Hospital, Portal Vein Embolization (PVE) is performed using specialized interventional radiology techniques and detailed liver imaging. Established in 1991, this JCI accredited hospital in Istanbul, Turkey has 138 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.
Apollo Hospital International Limited offers advanced Portal Vein Embolization (PVE) using modern interventional radiology techniques and individualized hepatobiliary care plans. Established in 2003, the JCI accredited hospital is located in Istanbul, Turkey and has 300 beds, providing comprehensive liver and interventional radiology services for local and international patients.

Memorial Sisli 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 2000, the JCI, NABH accredited hospital is located in Istanbul, Turkey and operates 252 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.
Choosing Medicana Camlica Hospital for Portal Vein Embolization (PVE) gives patients access to experienced interventional radiologists, advanced cross-sectional imaging, hepatobiliary surgical teams, and specialized post-procedure monitoring. Established in 1999, the ISO, JCI accredited hospital in Istanbul, Turkey has 113 beds and provides specialized liver-directed and interventional treatments.
Portal Vein Embolization is generally performed under image guidance using local anaesthesia with sedation or other anaesthetic support when required. A catheter is introduced into the portal venous system, and selected branches are embolized using appropriate materials. Patients are monitored following the procedure for pain, fever, bleeding, infection, changes in liver function, or other complications. Follow-up CT or MRI may be performed to assess liver regeneration and determine whether the planned surgery can proceed.
