    Abstract:
    Seventy-four cases of hepatic metastasis of colorectal cancer experienced in our hospital from January 1988 to February 1996 were examined for hepatic arterial infusion chemotherapy induced macrobiotic effect. A group (21 cases of hepatectomy and hepatic arterial infusion chemotherapy), B group (31 cases of hepatic arterial infusion chemotherapy only) and C group (22 cases of iv and po systemic chemotherapy) were comparatively examined for survival rate using Kaplan-Meier method. Single administration of adriamycin, epirubicin, cisplatin (CDDP) and 5-FU, along with CDDP-5-FU combined therapy and 5-FU 1,000 mg/5 hr intermittent continuous infusion therapy, were used. Mean survival period was 719 +/- 369, 426 +/- 417, 158 +/- 125 days for groups A, B and C, respectively. One-year survival rate by degrees of H factor was comparatively examined because of different H factor rates for these 3 groups. As a result, it proved to be 83 and 40% for groups A and B, respectively, in H1,2 cases and 32 and 11% for groups B and C, respectively, in H3 cases, with their respective significant differences (p < 0.05). Positive treatment, including hepatectomy, hepatic arterial infusion chemotherapy and the like, was suggested to contribute to patient macrobiosis.
