title: [Treatment of carcinomatous effusion with oily anticancer agents dissolved in lipiodol].
abstract: The oily anticancer agents dissolved in lipiodol used for arterial administration against various solid tumors in our department were found to be applicable to treat for pleural or peritoneal carcinomatosis experimentally and clinically. The pharmacokinetic study with rat model showed oily anticancer agents were retained in a high concentration in the peritoneal cavity compared to water-soluble anticancer agents. In our pilot clinical study all patients with pleural or peritoneal carcinomatosis showed improvement cytologically and physically.
