The effect of general microwave hyperthermia and hepatic artery ligation (HAL) was tested on Wistar rats with a transplanted N-methyl-N-nitrosoguanidine-induced adenocarcinoma in the liver. Total body hyperthermia (41.5"C for 1 hour, three times during 24 hours) was given on the same day as HAL, and
## Abstract The blood flow in an experimental adenocarcinoma in the rat liver was determined with the ^133^Xe‐washout technique before and after hepatic artery ligation (HAL). There was an initial reduction of the washout of 50%. This was further reduced after 1 day by 50%, which was maintained for
The effects of arterial infusion with chemotherapy alone or in combination with hepatic artery ligation on the normal liver of the cat were studied. Early in the course of treatment cats receiving chemotherapy infusion only appeared sicker than animals in other groups. Yet only 1 of 5 cats was dead
## Abstract 5‐Fluorouracil was administered by continuous hepatic intra‐arterial infusion to eight patients with the diagnosis of cancer of the gastrointestinal tract and hepatic metastases. Its elimination characteristics were investigated to see if they correlated with therapeutic effect or reduc
