To investigate the effect on gastric cancer and metastatic lymph node, an emulsion made of pirarubicin and lipiodol mixture was injected around the lesion of the gastric cancer using gastrointestinal endoscopy. At the site of emulsion injection and lymph node, the concentration of the THP Lipiodol emulsion was enough despite injection more than 7 days before. This targeting therapy for metastatic lymph nodes was considered effective.
