Notes:
Abstract Recent reports on regional chemotherapy for hepatic metastases of colorectal origin are reviewed. Because of reported side effects and lack of evidence for its superiority over conventional intravenous administration, intra-arterial administration of fluoropyrimidines cannot be advised for routine use, but should be restricted to centres participating in clinical trials on this subject.
