As an intraoperative chemotherapy treatment for the regional lymph nodes in resectable cases of pancreatoduodenal cancer, Neocarzinostatin (NCS) was administered in the duodenal subserosa and the NCS concentration was measured in the resected lymph nodes. Experiments: NCS 4,000 units (n = 4), or 10,000 units (n = 4) was administered into the duodenal subserosa of mongrel dogs, and 2 hours after administration, the lymph nodes of the mesentery root were resected. The NCS concentration in the lymph nodes was 0.21 U/g in the 4,000-U group and 1.39 U/g in the 10,000-U group. Clinical findings: NCS 10,000 U was administered into the duodenal subserosa in 6 cases of pancreatoduodenal cancer. The total number of resected lymph nodes was 49 and the mean NCS concentration was 5.65 U/g. According to site, the highest concentration was measured in lymph nodes from the anterior and posterior region of the pancreas head, which were near to the administration site. Also, NCS was well distributed in the lymph nodes in the hepatoduodenal ligament and mesentery root which lay in the direction of lymph flow. NCS concentration was high in lymph nodes resected 1 hour after administration. According to experimental reports of in vitro studies, an NCS concentration of more than 0.5 U/g is required to obtain an anticancer effect. This method is therefore considered to be useful as a form of intraoperative chemotherapy for the regional lymph nodes in pancreatoduodenal cancer.
