[Reservoir implanted arterial infusion therapy in liver cancer with replaced right hepatic artery].
Seven cases of liver cancer with replaced right hepatic artery were treated with arterial infusion therapy using implanted reservoir. The reservoir was surgically implanted in all cases. In 5 cases, right hepatic artery ligation was done simultaneously. TAE via right hepatic artery and ligation of middle and left hepatic artery was done in 2 other cases. ADM, CDDP, MMC, 5-FU and Lentinan were used. As the result, decrease in tumor size or necrosis of tumor was found in 3 cases of hepatomas, necrosis of tumor was found in 1 of three cases of metastatic liver cancer and remarkable decrease in tumor size and normalization of CEA level were found in another case. Arterial infusion therapy using implanted reservoir for the cases with variation would be effective with the combination of hepatic ligation or TAE.
