Clinical Trial – Thermal Radiofrequency Versus Neurolytic Saddle Rhizotomyfor Severe Pereneal Cancer Pain
The control of perineal malignant pain is difficult and challenging for pain physicians.
Different modalities have been tried to treat this complex pain syndrome including
pharmacotherapy and interventional therapy.
Neuroaxial phenol rhizolysis is simple and cheap option. However; for patients with pelvic or
rectal neoplasms and intact bowel and bladder sphincteric functions, there are neurosurgical
recomendations of selective sacral nerve roots rhizotomy blockade "as an alternative to
chemical saddle rhizotomy".
Oxygen-dependent regulation of tumor growth and metastasis in human breast cancer xenografts.
Tumor hypoxia is relevant for tumor growth, metabolism, resistance to chemotherapy and metastasis. We have previously shown that hyperoxia, using hyperbaric oxygen treatment (HBOT), attenuates tumor growth and shifts the phenotype from mesenchymal to epithelial (MET) in the DMBA-induced mammary tumor model. This study describes the effect of HBOT on tumor growth, angiogenesis, chemotherapy efficacy and metastasis in a triple negative MDA-MB-231 breast cancer model, and evaluates tumor growth using a triple positive BT-474 breast cancer model. 5 x 105 cancer cells were injected s.c. in the groin area of NOD/SCID female mice. The BT-474 group was supplied with Progesterone and Estradiol pellets 2-days prior to tumor cell injection. Mice were divided into controls (1 bar, pO2 = 0.2 bar) or HBOT (2.5 bar, pO2 = 2.5 bar, 90 min, every third day until termination of the experiments).
Combined application of dexamethasone and hyperbaric oxygen therapy yields better efficacy for patients with delayed encephalopathy after acute carbon monoxide poisoning.
Abstract: Delayed encephalopathy after acute carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning (DEACMP) commonly occurs after recovering from acute CO poisoning. This study was performed to assess the efficacy of the combined application of dexamethasone and hyperbaric oxygen (HBO)...
