Physicians, biologists and physicists current their contemporary paintings within the box of hyperthermia in regards to either its program and its mixture with radiation and chemotherapy. present technical chances, medical administration and significant elements of its use for superficial and deep-seated tumors are mentioned. the most subject matters mentioned are: adjustments of metabolism and microcirculation lower than warmth stipulations, the organic interplay of warmth with X-rays and several other chemotherapeutic brokers, and the newest scientific facts from diverse associations at the mixed program within the remedy of cancer.

Die tierische Zelle in Zellkultur

Die ersten erfolgreichen Versuche zur Züchtung tierischer Zellen außerhalb des Organismus reichen zurück in den Beginn unseres Jahrhunderts. 1907 gelang HARRI­ SON durch Explantation von Gewebsstücken aus Froschembryonen der Nachweis, daß in der Embryonalentwicklung die Neuriten als Fortsätze der Nervenzelle ohne Be­ teiligung anderer Zellen gebildet werden, und daß damit eine spezifische celluläre Funktion auch außerhalb des Gesamtorganismus zu beobachten ist [310,311].

Port-Site and Wound Recurrences in Cancer Surgery: Incidence - Pathogenesis - Prevention

Prior to now nine years, reviews of 'port-site' deposits following laparoscopic surgical procedure for malignancy, specifically laparoscopic resection of colonic melanoma, have forged a shadow at the knowledge of the laparoscopic method within the surgical guy­ agement in sufferers with melanoma. these reviews of port-site deposits, a few ninety circumstances suggested within the literature as much as 1999, have opened a 'can of worms' and highlighted the shortage of our wisdom on melanoma mobilephone migration from sturdy tu­ mors and the criteria that underlie their profitable implantation in surgical wounds either within the presence and lack of a favorable strain pneumoperito­ neum.
