| Core Tip |
Patients with liver metastases from colorectal cancer are in 80% of cases non-indicated for resection. The standard first line treatment of unresectable liver metastases is systemic chemotherapy, however this method results in progression for 70% of patients. The indicated therapy for refractory patients is the chemoembolization. In this study, we monitored tumor response, and adverse events after chemoembolization of colorectal cancer liver metastases with polyethylene glycol embolics loaded with irinotecan. Chemoembolization with these embolics is effective in terms of tumor response, time to progression, survival and quality of life and resulted in mild toxicity. |
