    Author: Ashino Y, Goto H, Oigawa K, Yamaguchi I.
    Journal: Gan To Kagaku Ryoho; 1991 Aug; 18(11):1968-71. PubMed ID: 1877840.
    Abstract:
    Intra-arterial infusion chemotherapy through a catheter incubated at the recurrent radial artery and connected to an implantable reservoir was performed in eight patients with supraclavicular lymph node metastasis including four locally advanced recurrent breast cancers and two inflammatory breast cancer. Clinical response in breast cancer patients was 1 CR, 3 PR, 1 NC, and 1 PD. There was no complication related with catheter insertion. Therefore from the aspect of quality of life, this system was considered useful for treatment of advanced breast cancer, especially locally advanced recurrent breast cancer.
