Abstract: Radiotherapy is used in the setting of curative treatment for head and neck cancer. Xerostomia and related problems occur when major salivary glands are included in the irradiation fields. This reduces quality of life (QOL). Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT)...

Abstract: Head and neck cancer is becoming a more recognizable pathology to the general population and dentists. The modes of treatment include surgery and/or radiation therapy. Pretreatment dental assessment should be provided for these patients before they undergo...
Abstract: We report a 72-year-old man suffering from pleural empyema after pneumonectomy due to nonsmall cell lung cancer 20 years previously. Insufficiency of the bronchial stump was ruled out by bronchoscopy and bronchography. Thoracic computed tomographic scan of...
Abstract: Preoperative micronutrient supplementation in fast-track surgery programs have shown to reduce complications, shorten recovery, and thereby lower costs. In a prospective randomized study, the metabolic effects of a combination of alpha-ketoglutaric acid...
Abstract: Oxygen tension in healing tissues is heterogeneous. Increased oxygen mostly stimulates repair mechanisms and enhances tissue healing. Hyperbaric oxygen therapy increases blood and tissue oxygen content and may help maintain cellular integrity and function....
Abstract: This study describes the biological effects of hyperoxic treatment on BT4C rat glioma xenografts in vivo with special reference to tumor growth, angiogenesis, apoptosis, general morphology and gene expression parameters. One group of tumor bearing animals...
Abstract: From January 2003 to June 2006, 6 patients with leakage of the cervical esophagogastrostomy after esophagectomy and gastric pull-up underwent endoscopic stenting using the self-expandable covered tracheal type device. Anastomotic healing was satisfactory....
