[Evaluation of new drug delivery system for primary lung cancer: intermittent intra-arterial injection therapy with implantable port system (reservoir)--II. Evaluation of technical methods for cannulation of feeding arteries of lung cancer with implantation of implantable port system].
As mentioned in the first of the present series of reports, lung cancers were fed by various arteries such as bronchial arteries, internal mammary arteries, inter-costal arteries and branches of subclavian arteries such as thyro-cervical truncus or thoraco-dorsal arteries, according to the size and stages of tumors and the processes of therapy. On the basis of these anatomical findings of the feeders of lung cancers, we tried several effective and reasonable ways of cannulation of catheters, which were connected with an implantable port system.
