On October 21, 1995, a 45-year-old woman underwent mastectomy (Kodama's procedure), preserving the thoracic muscles, based on the diagnosis of right breast cancer (T2aN1bM0). After surgery, she received 3 cycles of adjuvant chemotherapy (CAF) using anthracycline and other drugs. Thereafter she was orally treated with UFT for 2 years. She developed tumor recurrence in her liver 3 years after surgery. At that time, she was initially scheduled to undergo partial hepatectomy (including the tumor-affected area), but it was later judged that radical surgery was impossible due to the presence of multiple lesions in both lobes of the liver. A reservoir was therefore installed in the hepatic artery. Ten days after reservoir installation, intra-arterial infusion of paclitaxel (80 mg/m2), dissolved in 100 ml of physiological saline, was performed for one hour, using the installed reservoir. This treatment was administered once weekly for 3 consecutive weeks, followed by one week of rest. After 3 cycles of this regimen, the liver metastases had disappeared completely. At present, 2 years after the beginning of this therapy, the patient remains in a state of CR (complete response). Grade 2 alopecia and grade 1 peripheral neuropathy were the only adverse reactions observed.
