ABSTRACT
Objective To study the curative effect of internal thoracic arterial chemoembolization in the treatment of advanced lung cancer.Methods Internal thoracic artery was confirmed to be the main supplied artery by digital substraction angiography(DSA) in 8 cases with lung cancer. The internal thoracic artery was embolized by stainless steel coil below the supplied segment in order to avoid the normal vascular territory occlusion.Then iodized oil combined with Cis-Diaminedichloroplatinum(DDP) and mitomycin(MMC) were injected into the supplied segment slowly until blood flow stopped,at last,the gelfoam sponge sheet was inserted into this supplied segment to decrease the wash of iodized oil by blood flow.Results Clinical symptoms were improved obviously in all cases after therapy.CT scans showed that iodized oil accumulated in the tumor better four weeks after the chemoembolization. Conclusion For these cases with advanced lung cancer which the blood supply mainly by internal thoracic artery,it is necessary to perform chemoembolization.
