    Författare :Catrin von Below; Håkan Ahlström; Cecilia Wassberg; Mauritz Waldén; Jens Sörensen; Michael Häggman; Joel Kullberg; Katrine Åhlström Riklund; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Prostate cancer; lymph nodes; lymph node staging; PET CT; MRI DWI; extended pelvic lymph node dissection; targeted biopsies; multi-parametric MRI; TRUS guided biopsy; multiple regression analysis;

    Sammanfattning : Prostate cancer (PCa) is the most common non-skin malignancy of men in developed countries. In spite of treatment with curative intent up to 30-40% of patients have disease recurrence after treatment, resulting from any combination of lymphatic, hematogenous, or contiguous local spread.

  3. 7. Extratumoral effects of highly aggressive prostate cancer

    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Prostate cancer; tumor instructed normal tissue; TINT; non-malignant prostate tissue; lymph nodes; lymph node metastasis; pre-metastatic niche; tumor microenvironment; tumor macroenvironment; tumor immunoediting; Dunning rat model of prostate cancer;

    Sammanfattning : Prostate cancer (PC) is the most common cancer in Sweden. Most patients have slow growing tumors that will not cause them any harm within their lifetime, but some have aggressive tumors and will die from their disease. LÄS MER

  4. 8. Optimizing the magnetic tracer technique for sentinel lymph node detection and tumour localization in breast cancer surgery

    Författare :Allan Jazrawi; Andreas Karakatsanis; Staffan Eriksson; Fredrik Wärnberg; Jonas Manjer; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Breast Cancer; Sentinel Node; Super paramagnetic ironoxide nanoparticles; SPIO; Skin Staining; Magnetic resonance imaging; magnetic seed; guidewire; Kirurgi; Surgery;

    Sammanfattning : Breast cancer is the most common form of cancer in women, and the primary treatment modalities are still breast-conserving surgery (BCS) and sentinel lymph node dissection (SLND) in most cases. Superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPIO) are gaining momentum as a tracer for sentinel lymph node detection. LÄS MER

  5. 9. Hepatic and Peritoneal Colorectal Metastases : Aspects of Prognosis and Treatment

    Författare :Haile Mahteme; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Surgery; Colorectal cancer; lever metastas; peritoneal metastas; intraperitoneal; tumör reduktion; Kirurgi; Surgery; Kirurgi; Surgery; kirurgi;

    Sammanfattning : Although two-thirds of colorectal cancer patients are cured by surgery, approximately 50% of the patients with this disease develop locally recurrent or distant metastases during the course of their illness. The aim of this study was to identify metastatic sites associated with poor prognosis in rectal cancer and then to investigate methods that can prevent the development and growth of metastases and optimise uptake of drugs at these sites in animal models.

  7. 10. Cytogenetic studies of primary and metastatic breast cancer

    Författare :Adewale Adeyinka; Avdelningen för klinisk genetik; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; histokemi; cytokemi; Histologi; tissue culture; cytochemistry; histochemistry; Histology; metastases; prognosis; male breast cancer; breast cancer; trisomy 12; Cytogenetics; chromosomes; vävnadskultur; Clinical genetics; Klinisk genetik;

    Sammanfattning : A series of primary and metastatic breast carcinomas obtained from female and male patients were cytogenetically analysed. Trisomy 12 was identified as a recurrent and sometimes early event in breast carcinogenesis. LÄS MER
