ABSTRACT:
The assembly, through a plurality of shunts, allows blood circulation from the lower part of a patient's body and from the intestines to flow unimpeded to the heart, while isolating hepatic venous blood containing toxic agents from the general circulation and returning it to a heart-lung machine. As a result, the assembly can be used to perfuse the liver, of a patient which has become involved with cancer, with extremely high does of cancericidal chemotherapy agents, while at the same time avoiding the toxic effects of these agents on the patient's body as a whole.
