[Combined therapy of extra-abdominal desmoids].
Abstract: Basing on a comparative study of the results of combined treatment (irradiation + operation) and surgery alone provided to patients with extra-abdominal desmoid (ED) the authors reach a conclusion that preoperative gamma-beam therapy can...
[Accumulation of gaseous products of lipid peroxidation in the expired air of human subjects during hyperbaric oxygenation].
Abstract: Hyperbaric oxygenation (1 atm. of pure oxygen, 60 min. exposure) resulted in a sharp increase of the endogenous lipoperoxidation level in humans which was evaluated by the pentane content in the exhaled air. That activation of endogenous...
[Co-operation of fundamental research with clinical work in radiation oncology].
Abstract: Recent advances in cancer radiotherapy have been remarkable and this is mainly due to the contribution of radiation physics and progression of radiation physics and progression of techniques for irradiation. However, it seems to be needed...
The Girdlestone procedure in spinal cord injured patients: a ten year experience.
Abstract: The Girdlestone procedure which originally was developed for the treatment of tuberculosis of the hip has found a place in the management of septic hip arthritis and osteomyelitis secondary to pressure sores in spinal cord injury and...
Generalized small-vessel stenosis in the brain. A case history of a patient treated with monoplace hyperbaric oxygen at 1.5 to 2 ATA.
Abstract: Complete evaluation of older patients with mental changes always leaves us with a certain percentage whose condition can only be attributed to atherosclerosis. Little is being done for these patients because this generalized stenosis of...
Tumour oxygenation under normobaric and hyperbaric conditions.
Abstract: Tumour oxygenation during exposure to normobaric and hyperbaric oxygen was assessed by means of a cryophotometric micromethod and a specially constructed pressure chamber. The tumours investigated were DS-carcinosarcomas implanted...
