The indications and contraindications for IACT and the possible complications of this approach are determined. The drugs for IACT, the types of implantable devices and the techniques for their application are shown. Criteria for assessment of the effect of treatment are determined. Experience is recorder with 3 patients with anterior resection of rectum and nonresectable liver metastases. The result was failure in 1 patient and very good in the other two.
