abstract = {In era of systemic chemotherapy for colorectal liver metastasis (CLM), role of hepatic intraarterial infusion chemotherapy (HAIC) remains important. We examined treatment effects of HAIC in 36 patients with non-resectable CLM using 5-FU or CPT-11. Tumor response was complete response (CR) in 4, partial response (PR) in 19, stable disease (SD) in 6, and progressive disease (PD) in 7. Tumor control rate was 81% and response rate was 64%. Six patients showed catheter-related complications. Median survival period was 62 months in CR, and 25 with PR. HAIC has a major impact in high chemotherapy response and prolonging survival.},
