Abstract:
36 patients with cancer of rectum treated by infusion chemotherapy after selective inferior mesenteric arteriography were reported.All patients had good result.A- mong them 13 cases without embolization,showed vascular blockage,decrease in size of tu- mor on follow up angiographies and reduction of bleeding during operation.The authors be- lieved that arterial infusion chemotherapy not only can kill tumor cells hut also resulted in degenerative change of vascular endothelia,necrosis and vascular occlusion.Simultaneously it can also stimulate the tissue in the periphery of tumor to produce inflammatory cell infil- tration and fihroplasia,suppress the grwoth of tumor,prevent the spread of tumor cells and metastasis;thus prolong the survival time.Interventional treatment is of great value to can- cer of rectum.The indications were recommended.
