Cell kinetics was determined, as 3H-thymidine labeling index (LI), in hepatic lesions from 36 patients with primary colorectal carcinoma: LI values ranged from 0.9% to 23.5% and were normally distributed. Cell kinetics was not related to sex or age of the patient, or to liver function. For clinical studies the median LI value of 10% was used to separate slowly and rapidly proliferating lesions. Univariate analysis showed that patients radically resected and with a low LI tumor have a longer disease-free interval and a better probability of 12-month survival than those non-radically resected and with a high LI tumor. When treatment and cell kinetics were taken into consideration, the probability of 12-month survival was 100% for patients with slowly proliferating and radically resected hepatic metastases. Patients with rapidly proliferating tumors, regardless of type of treatment, had the worst prognosis.
