[A case of complete response in a patient with invasive bladder cancer due to intermittent intraarterial infusion chemotherapy using the alteration of blood flow].
The patient was a 70-year-old male with invasive bladder cancer. We performed intermittent arterial infusion (ITI) combined with alteration of blood flow in the bladder wall using the contralateral arterial embolization. As for anti-tumor agents, cisplatin (CDDP) 10mg and pirarubic in (THP) 10 mg were selected, and were injected every week for 11 times. Complete response (CR) was noted by cystoscopy and biopsied specimen. In our conclusion. ITI was useful for the treatment of bladder cancer.
