Abstract

We reported a 71-year-old male patient with multiple liver recurrence of hepatocellular carcinoma, who responded to arterial infusion chemotherapy using CDDP and 5-FU. The patient was administered 10mg/body CDDP and 250 mg/body 5-FU on day 1-5./1 course. As a result, the tumor decreased and AFP was decreased to 50.8 ng/ml (from 93099 ng/ml). The patient is alive 13 months after the beginning of therapy in a condition of partial response (PR).
