Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) Research for Carcinoma.
Abstract: Merkel cell carcinoma is a relatively rare neuroendocrine carcinoma of the skin. It arises in the head and neck region in approximately 50% of cases. Its aggressive behavior predisposes patients to local-regional recurrence and distant metastases after...
Abstract: Flow cytometric bromodeoxyuridine/deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) bivariate analysis for transitional cell carcinoma of the human bladder tumor was performed to evaluate whether or not this technique can determine the malignant potential of these tumors. In...
Abstract: The outcomes of surgical reconstruction for patients who have undergone extensive tumor resection of the mandible and associated soft tissue have been less than desirable for many reasons: lack of cancer cure, radiation problems, as well as inadequate...

Abstract: Treatment of patients with osteoradionecrosis of the mandible with a pathologic fracture consists in almost all cases of a continuity resection of the mandible. This leads to functional and esthetic problems that can only be solved by often extensive...
Abstract: The objective of the study was to evaluate the effect of postoperative hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) therapy on wound breakdown following radical vulvectomy. A prospective, observational study was performed on patients undergoing radical vulvectomy from October...
Abstract: Radiation enteric disorders are rare and difficult to treat. A case of radiation duodenitis treated by hyperbaric oxygen is reported. A sixty-year-old man underwent right nephroureterectomy, chemotherapy (platin and 5 fluorouracil) and radiation therapy (54...
Abstract: The article examines current laboratory and clinical information with respect to the relative importance of tumor hypoxia to the radiation control of carcinoma of the cervix. Its impact is difficult to quantify because of interrelated important parameters,...
Abstract: A pilot study on intraoperative radiation therapy (IORT) combined with external beam radiation therapy (EBRT) in nonresectable non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) was performed in 31 patients (mean age: 66.2 years, range: 51-80; 10 anatomically and...
