&NA;Final evaluation of the Infusaid Pump system (Infusaid Corporation, Sharon, MA) for administration of regional chemotherapy must await completion of trials prospectively comparing survival of matched patients treated in this manner and patients treated by traditional systemic chemotherapy. A review of the current medical literature confirms our personal experience that response rates within the liver are high. Survival reports appear encouraging but this may represent an artifact in patient selection. An algorithm is presented to offer surgeons a reasonable and conservative means for selection of those colorectal cancer patients with metastatic involvement of the liver who are most likely to benefit from this system of drug delivery.
