[Complication of gastro-duodenum with intra-hepatic arterial infusion chemotherapy using implantable reservoir system for hepatic tumors].
The subjects were 20 cases with implantable reservoir systems for unresectable hepatic tumors. We evaluated the correlation between a complication of the gastro-duodenum after intra-hepatic arterial chemotherapy and a gastro-duodenal distribution of anti-cancer drugs using the hepatic perfusion scintigram by 99mTc-macroaggregated albumin via reservoirs. The 20 cases were divided into 3 groups (A, B, C) according to the level of gastro-duodenal accumulation of 99mTc-MAA. In group A with the strongest accumulation in the gastro-duodenum, we frequently found a gastro-duodenal ulcer after intra-hepatic arterial chemotherapy. There was a significant difference between group A and group C, the latter without a gastro-duodenal accumulation. These results suggested that the hepatic perfusion scintigram via reservoir was a useful examination to expect and prevent the complication of gastro-duodenum on intra-hepatic arterial infusion (especially continuous infusion) chemotherapy.
