متن کاملAlternating hepatic arterial infusion and systemic chemotherapy for stage IV colorectal cancer with synchronous liver metastasis.
Among 41 patients with synchronous liver metastases of colorectal cancer, 15 patients underwent synchronous resection of their liver metastases and achieved a median survival time (MST) of 1,441 days (versus 748 days for the 26 patients without resection, p=0.038), a median relapse-free survival time of 652 days (MST not reached), and a recurrence rate in the residual liver of 20% (3/15 patient...
متن کاملContinuous hepatic arterial infusion chemotherapy for liver metastasis from biliary tract and pancreatic cancers.
BACKGROUND The efficacy of intrahepatic arterial chemotherapy for liver metastasis from biliary tract or pancreatic cancer remains uncertain. PATIENTS AND METHODS Five patients with bilio-pancreatic liver metastasis underwent continuous hepatic arterial infusion chemotherapy.

متن کاملA clinical-pharmacological evaluation of hepatic arterial infusion of adriamycin.
We have evaluated the degree to which hepatic arterial infusion of Adriamycin produces higher hepatic and lower systemic drug concentrations than are achieved with corre sponding peripheral venous infusion. Hepatic arterial catheters were placed in seven patients with primary or metastatic liver cancer. Temporary hepatic venous catheter placement allowed direct sampling of drug levels in the he...
