Regional intralymphatic infusion (ILI) of irradiated tumor cells with evidence of distant effects.
1977
A case of canine lymphoma with radiographically-documented involvement of the para-aortic nodes is reported. Intralymphatic infusions (ILI) of cultured irradiated autochthonous tumor cells to remote lymph node bearing areas were associated with a dramatic initial shrinkage of the para-aortic lymphadenop-athies. Three ILI timing schedules were used consecutively during a course of 10 treatments, allowing a comparison of responses in the same animal. The reported case suggests that a normal lymph node can be effectively “stimulated” by the same agent approximately every 3 weeks. A possible schedule for intralymphatic infusion is proposed for further investigation.
