  ABSTRACT: Due to the insidious clinical symptoms of early hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), most of the patients diagnosed at intermediate-to-advanced stage HCC, and they lost the opportunity for curative treatment. Comprehensive interventional therapy plays an important role in prolonging the median survival of patients with intermediate-to-advanced stage HCC, among which transcatheter hepatic artery chemoembolization (TACE) is the most commonly used minimally invasive treatment. However, TACE may cause many postoperative complications such as liver function damage, biliary tract injury, upper gastrointestinal bleeding. Among them, TACE-related respiratory complications have been reported in a few articles, which are extremely rare but serious, and there are still many uncertainties about their occurrence mechanisms and risk factors. This article is aim to focus on the research progress of the respiratory complications of TACE, thus making progress on TACE-treatment aftercare.
