  • Title: [Intra-arterial infusion port system for intermittent degradable starch microsphere chemoembolization and implantation method].
    Author: Takayasu Y, Kotake M, Yokoyama H, Takehara M.
    Journal: Gan To Kagaku Ryoho; 1989 Aug; 16(8 Pt 2):3075-80. PubMed ID: 2506835.
    Abstract:
    On the basis of our experience of 182 cases of port implantation in 165 patients (May, 1985-April, 1989), we clarify problems of each system and discuss the usefulness of our present "port-and-catheter connecting system, PCCS," which facilitated repeated infusion of the angiographic medium and embolization materials such as Degradable Starch Microspheres (DSM) and Lipiodol. The effectiveness, especially, of the intermittent DSM chemoembolization therapy is reported.
