[Locoregional chemotherapy of liver metastases of colorectal cancer].
Intraarterial regional chemotherapy for non-resectable, isolated colorectal metastases to the liver was performed in 121 patients via implantable pumps or infuse-a-ports. FUDR alone or in combination with 5-FU and Mitomycin C was administered in different modalities. Partial response rate ranged between 35 and 71%. Median survival since starting chemotherapy was so far 8-16 months. Extrahepatic relapse occurred in 45%, technical complications in 23% (pump) and 46% (infuse a port). Local toxic side effects strongly depended on drug dosage and application modus. These results corresponded with those of 647 German collective cases and 490 cases from American literature.
