title: [Intra-arterial chemotherapy in advanced ovarian cancer. 2. Technic, results, complications].
abstract: Between 1978 and 1984 43 patients with advanced ovarian carcinomas got intra-arterially MTX and 5-FU after being operated, later they received systemically a CMFV chemotherapy (therapy arm A). 42 patients were treated systemically only with a CMFV combination. The results and complications of both types of treatment were evaluated according to theoretical and technical basis of the intraarterial infusion. The intra-arterial chemotherapy led to a significant better rate of remission (74 per cent in therapy arm A compared with 62 per cent in therapy arm B) because of a rapid induction of remission. The cumulative survival time was significantly extended to 27 months compared with 16 months after systemic therapy only.
