Three patients with inoperable malignant hepatomas were treated by intra-arterial infusion of fluorouracil. In each case the treatment gave relief of symptoms: there was striking relief of pain in two cases.Preoperative angiography is essential, but the technical problems are relatively minor.The response of the tumours to chemotherapy is sufficiently encouraging to justify greater efforts for early diagnosis.
三名无法手术的恶性肝癌患者接受了氟尿嘧啶动脉内灌注治疗。在每例患者中，治疗都缓解了症状：两例患者的疼痛得到了显著缓解。术前血管造影必不可少，但技术问题相对较小。肿瘤对化疗的反应足以令人鼓舞，值得为早期诊断付出更大努力。
