The Use of Hepatic Artery Infusion Chemotherapy for Unresectable Colorectal Cancer Liver Metastases.

Abstract

Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most commonly diagnosed cancer in men and women (Siegel et al. in CA Cancer J Clin 72(1):7-33). Over one-half of newly diagnosed individuals will develop liver metastases. Among those with liver-only metastatic disease, only about one in five will be candidates for potentially curable resection.
