Primary and metastasizing malignant carcinoma of the liv er
represent a challenge to both the diagnostician and the therapist.
For this reason, it appears a worthwhile task to review the current
status of knowledge about the treatment of primary and
metastasizing tumors of the liver. The ques tion is whether modem
diagnostic methods and new thera peutic concepts can help to
improve the prospects of treat ment. Of particular interest is the
role played by therapeu tic procedures directly involving the
liver. Thus, it is equally important to discuss the
pathophysiological and pharmacological bases for a modem therapy
concept as it is to consider diagnostic issues and possible
definitions of stages of progression. Therapeutic concepts comprise
sys temic therapy and organ-related therapeutic methods, in cluding
surgical resection, changes in the blood supply, re gional
selective chemotherapy, and other localized or regional, highly
specialized forms of therapy. This survey of the various
possibilities in the field is meant too to stimulate further
scientific research, given that methods of treatment are as yet by
no means stan dardized, but are still in the stage of clinical
research, where experimental models can find an application. The
only well-established operative procedure is surgery on the
isolated liver tumor. In this area, specialized techniques and
various intraoperative procedures are discussed. There is a wealth
of information available on all the top ics covered."
