Recurrent Colon Cancer, Liver Metastases
Isolated Hepatic Perfusion With Melphalan Followed By Chemotherapy in Treating Patients With Unresectable Colorectal Cancer That is Metastatic to the Liver
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Combining more than one drug and giving them in different ways may kill more tumor cells.
