    Sammanfattning : Local treatment of a tumour is of interest from a number of perspectives. It is focused on reducing the tumour volume with minimal trauma, inducing tumour immunity and is a potential component of a combination therapy against tumours. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Interstitial laser thermotherapy (ILT) of breast cancer - Methodology and immunological responce

    Författare :Kristin Huld-Haraldsdottir; Lund Kirurgi; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Breast cancer; Laser thermotherapy; Minimally invasive treatment; Tumour immunology; Thermal treatment; Tumour size; Magnetic resonance imaging;

    Sammanfattning : Interstitial laser thermotherapy (ILT) is an attractive form of local therapy against cancer because of its anti-tumor immune activity. The aim of this work was to evaluate ILT in breast cancer with respect to technique, changes in tissue immunocompetent cells and effect on prognosis. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Strategies for optimisation of 177Lu-octreotate therapy – exploring local administration and combination therapy regimens

    Sammanfattning : Neuroendocrine tumours (NETs) are a group of heterogeneous tumour types that originate in hormone-producing organs. Patients with NETs are often diagnosed after the primary tumour has metastasised. LÄS MER

  4. 4. The effect of intra-abdominal local anaesthetics following major gynaecological surgery. Clinical and experimental studies

    Författare :Jane M. Hayden; Göteborgs universitet; []

    Sammanfattning : Background: Local anaesthetics (LA), in addition to inhibition of pain signalling, also have anti-inflammatory properties. In vitro studies have demonstrated anti-proliferative and cytotoxic effect of LAs on cancer cells when administered in therapeutic concentrations. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Local recurrence after breast conserving surgery in breast cancer

    Författare :Irma Fredriksson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Breast Cancer; Breast Conserving Surgery; Radiotherapy; Local Recurrence; Axillary Recurrence; Risk Factors; Distant Metastasis; Cohort Study; Case-Control Study;

    Sammanfattning : The general aim of this thesis was to gain increased insight into the problem of local recurrences after breast conserving surgery for breast cancer. In a population-based cohort of 4,694 women with invasive breast cancer, operated in 1981 to 1990 and followed through 1997, we studied how breast conserving surgery had been adopted into clinical practice.
