Transcatheter chemoembolization was performed in 2cases with carcinoma of urinary bladder. The vesical arteries isolateral to the tumor location were superselectively embolized with the pasty mixture of gelfoam powder and cotrast medium including anticancer agents. Bleomy cin was used in a case with squamous cell carcinoma and adriamycin was used in the other case with transitional cell carcinoma. In the results, superselective chemoembolization showed definite anticancer effect evidenced by complete disappearance of a large transitional cell carcinoma and marked necrotic change in a squamous cell carcinoma without evidential side effects and impairment of the baldder function. An additional advantage of this method is that it is easily accessible treatment modality when the highly sophisticated angiodiagnostic procedure is achieved. In conclusion the superselective chemoembolization of vesical arteries can be utilized not only for discouragement of cancer cell activities and hemostasis against intractable bleeding as an adjuvant therapy in multimodal treatment of highly malignant tumor but also for low stage carcinoma as an independent curative therapeutic entity with negligible side effects.
