| | Total Parenteral Nutrition |
 | | The role of TPN is as an adjuvant therapy. | | | Given the differing approaches to TPN therapy, cancer type, and status of malnutrition, meta-analysis is unsuitable for evaluation of preoperative and postoperative cancer surgery. | | | Sikora and colleagues observed that TPN facilitates standard chemotherapy along with concomitant radiation therapy (CRT) administration in esophageal cancer patients (1998). |

| | Home TPN |
| | Use of long-term intravenous nutrition in the home setting with continuation of medical care has been shown to induce remission in as many as 50 to 60 percent of patients, avoiding the risks of extensive surgery and preserving intestinal function. | | | If a patient has not yet accepted his or her illness, or dealt with the anger of intestinal loss, he or she cannot devote the necessary attention to learn or execute the complex techniques of home total parenteral nutrition and the process of training should be postponed. | | | In some instances the extended life derived from intravenous nutrition, if any, is of miserable quality, and the requirements of home care are burdensome to the patient and loved ones. |
