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

In past times nine years, stories 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 process within the surgical guy­ agement in sufferers with melanoma. these reviews of port-site deposits, a few ninety instances stated 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 reliable tu­ mors and the criteria that underlie their profitable implantation in surgical wounds either within the presence and shortage of a good strain pneumoperito­ neum.
