Can sirt be done if 3 liver metastses and 3 peritineal nodules ?

SIRT?: Hi Kanabar, this depends on what the primary cancer is, but lets assume its is secondaries from CRC, then in that case I would imagine the IRs would be very aggressive and would treat those 3 lesions in the liver, The periotonel nodules usually indicate Stage IV disease which is treated with cytotoxics only. Depends on the primary and how sure they are that this is the true extent of the disease t

Need more info: Selective internal radiation therapy (SIRT) or radioembolization, has proven to be effective in terms of extending time to progression of disease and providing survival benefit in treatment of liver colorectal metastases. Patients who have failed systemic chemotherapy appear to benefit from this therapy. Concurrent use of Y-90 in first & second line chemotherapy is currently being investigated.
