Abstract: There is disagreement over the management of teeth in irradiated head and neck cancer patients. Some oral surgeons support preirradiation extraction; others favor maintaining teeth. Before 1974, The University of Kentucky Department of Radiation Medicine...

[Clinical observation of osteoradionecrosis (ORN) of the jaw].
Abstract: Clinical observations and investigations on 48 patients treated in a 15-year period were presented. From the studying results of radionuclide scintigraphic examination we raised a new opinion that the bone in diseased area had its rich blood supply and...

[Hyperbaric oxygen therapy in the treatment of osteoradionecrosis: a review of its use and efficiency].
Abstract: In this work, the AA. speak of the use of hyperbaric oxygen therapy in the treatment of osteoradionecrosis, with particular reference to enforcement of this therapeutic technique in the mandibular necrosis caused by irradiation of tumour of cervical-facial...
The effect of hyperbaric oxygen therapy of oral mucosal carcinoma.
Abstract: Hyperbaric oxygen is sometimes used in the course of treatment in head and neck cancer patient. This study was undertaken to investigate the effect of hyperbaric oxygen on oral cavity carcinogenesis in an animal model. Dimethylbenzanthracene was applied...
A phase I/II study of the hypoxic cell sensitizer misonidazole as an adjunct to high fractional dose radiotherapy in patients with unresectable squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck: a RTOG randomized study (#79-04).
Abstract: A randomized prospective trial was performed to study the toxicity and efficacy of the hypoxic cell sensitizer, misonidazole (MISO), used as an adjunct to high fractional dose radiotherapy in the management of unresectable Stage III and IV squamous cell...
The effect of hyperthermia on the early- and late-appearing mouse foot reactions and on radiation carcinogenesis: Part II. Effect on radiation carcinogenesis (thermal enhancement and oxygen enhancement).
Abstract: The effect of hyperthermia on radiation carcinogenesis was investigated in the C3Hf/Sed mouse foot. The foot was irradiated under hypoxic conditions, in air, or under hyperbaric oxygen conditions to evaluate the oxygen effect. Hyperthermia at 43.5 degrees C...
