The use of hyperbaric oxygen therapy in bony reconstruction of the irradiated and tissue-deficient patient.

Jul 1, 1982 | Cancer

Abstract: Eighteen bony reconstructions of the mandible or maxilla using a newly defined and specific hyperbaric oxygen protocol are reported. Eleven of 12 grafts in irradiated tissue met six rigid criteria for a 91.6% rate of success. All six grafts into scarred and...

Jun 12, 1982 | Cancer

Abstract: This paper reports a case of clostridial myonecrosis (gas gangrene) which occurred in a vegetable gardener receiving immunosuppression therapy with prednisolone and azathioprine for renal allograft preservation. The infection developed after the excision of...

Misonidazole in patients receiving radical radiotherapy: pharmacokinetic effects of phenytoin, tumor response and neurotoxicity.

Mar 1, 1982 | Cancer

Abstract: In 1978, a pilot study began of 29 patients with advanced tumors of the head and neck. The study showed a initial peripheral neuropathy rate of 55%, despite a dose limitation of 12g/m2 of misonidazole. Tumor response at 9 months was most encouraging. We are...

New technologies to combat malignant tumours of the brain.

In vitro estimation of cell kinetic parameters in human urinary bladder cancers.

Oct 1, 1981 | Carcinoma

Abstract: The DNA synthetic time (T4) and the labeling index (LI) or urinary bladder carcinomas from 10 patients were measured by using the 3H-thymidine labeling technique in vitro under hyperbaric oxygen, and the potential doubling time (Tpot) was determined. The LI...
