We evaluated the effect of intra-arterial infusion chemotherapy associated with radiotherapy for two cases of local recurrence of rectal cancer. We performed an intra-arterial infusion chemotherapy (5-FU was injected continuously: 250 mg/day/body x 28 days, CDDP was injected weekly: 5 mg/day x 5 days) associated with radiotherapy (2-3 Gy/day x 20-30 days) for local recurrence of rectal cancer with the aim of pain-relief. Both patients markedly tended to feel less pain after the radiotherapy. Radiotherapy has been useful for pain-relief of the localized bone metastasis. The present intra-arterial infusion chemotherapy associated with radiotherapy was a possible local therapy for local recurrence of rectal cancer in the pelvis. Although the survival benefit depends on the presence of other site of recurrence, this procedure is useful for the improvement of QOL by relieving the pain of the patients.
