Experimental Evaluation of Microchemoembolism Therapy on Colon / 介入放射学杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To explose the experimental basis of microchemoembolism therapy on colon carcinoma. Methods 12 dogs were randomly divided into two groups. Performing inferior mesenteric arterial and portal vein catheterization. Simple contrast medium and the contrast medium mixed with CH 44 (?10～20?m) for the angiograms were analysed under DSA. The concentration of 5 Fu in the protal vein were measured with Liquid Chromatography and in recorded diagramatic curve. The half life times of 5 Fu after simple arterial infusion chemotherapy or after microchemoembolism therapy were calculated and analyzed with t test(in Microsoft Excel 97). 5 minutes and 3 hours after the microchemoembolism therapy, embolized colonic segment were taken and observed under optic and transmission electron microscopy. Two weeks later, autopsy was performed. Results The opacificotion time of simple contrast medium after injection was 6.25?1.50 seconds. The arteries looked smooth. The vessels oppeared to show spasm and tortuous after perfusion of the same amount of contrast medium mixed with CH 44 particles associated with narrowing of te bronches the opacification time was 930?192 seconds, which was conspicuously dramatically different from the simple contrast medium. In the simple contrast medium group, the initial concentration of 5 Fu in the portal vein was rather high, then it attenuated rapidly. The mean half life time was 12.36?5.25 min. In the microchemoembolism therapy group, the initial concentration of 5 Fu was relatively lower. After injection, it increased for a little while and then decreased slowly. The mean half life time was 47.37?14.02 min, which was conspicuously different from that of the simple contrast medium group( P
