Meningeal carcinomatosis in head and neck cancer. Report of six cases and review of the literature.

Numai utilizatorii înregistrați pot traduce articole

Head and neck cancer has rarely been reported to be a cause of meningeal carcinomatosis. These tumors are known more for their local invasiveness rather than distant metastasis. This would appear to preclude meningeal involvement, but close proximity to multiple cranial nerves may provide an access

Neurotoxicity in a phase I trial of continuous infusion cisplatin with hyperfractionated radiotherapy for locally advanced head and neck cancer.

Numai utilizatorii înregistrați pot traduce articole

BACKGROUND Both twice daily fractionated radiotherapy and concurrent cisplatin with once-daily radiotherapy have been shown to improve local disease control in patients with head and neck cancer. The objective of this phase I trial was to determine the maximum tolerated dose of cisplatin which could

Long-term use of valproic acid in US veterans is associated with a reduced risk of smoking-related cases of head and neck cancer.

BACKGROUND Epigenetic events play a major role in the carcinogenesis of tobacco-related cancers. The authors conducted a retrospective cohort study to evaluate the effects of exposure to the anticonvulsant agent valproic acid (VPA), a histone deacetylase inhibitor, on the risk of developing cancers

Alcoholism: independent predictor of survival in patients with head and neck cancer.

Numai utilizatorii înregistrați pot traduce articole

BACKGROUND Despite recognition of the high prevalence of alcoholism among patients with head and neck cancer, the prognostic importance of alcoholism has not been evaluated adequately. Previous investigators have speculated that alcoholic patients may have a poorer prognosis than nonalcoholic

Syncope from head and neck cancer.

We have examined 17 patients suffering from recurrent syncope caused by carcinoma of the head and neck. The tumor originated in the mouth in seven, larynx in six, nasopharynx in three and parotid gland in one, and involved cervical lymph nodes at diagnosis in 12. Sixteen patients had previously had

5-FU-induced neurotoxicity in cancer patients with profound DPD deficiency syndrome: a report of two cases.

Numai utilizatorii înregistrați pot traduce articole

OBJECTIVE 5-Fluorouracil (5-FU) is a mainstay for treating various solid tumours in adults, including digestive and head and neck cancers. 5-FU-related toxicities usually include haematological, digestive and cutaneous features. Additionally, 5-FU has been described as being potentially neurotoxic

Ifosfamide encephalopathy and nonconvulsive status epilepticus.

Numai utilizatorii înregistrați pot traduce articole

BACKGROUND Ifosfamide (IFX), an alkylating agent and isomer of cyclophosphamide, is used as a single agent or a component of multi-agent chemotherapy in the treatment of ovarian, testicular, head and neck cancers, sarcomas and lymphomas. Encephalopathy is manifested by cerebellar ataxia, confusional

Hyperbaric oxygenation for tumour sensitisation to radiotherapy.

Numai utilizatorii înregistrați pot traduce articole

BACKGROUND Cancer is common and radiotherapy is one well-established treatment for some solid tumours. HBO may improve the ability of radiotherapy to kill hypoxic cancer cells, so the administration of radiotherapy while breathing HBO may result in a reduction in mortality and tumour

Hyperbaric oxygenation for tumour sensitisation to radiotherapy: a systematic review of randomised controlled trials.

Numai utilizatorii înregistrați pot traduce articole

BACKGROUND Radiotherapy is a well-established treatment for some solid tumours. Hyperbaric oxygenation (HBO) may improve radiotherapeutic killing of hypoxic cancer cells, so the simultaneous administration of radiotherapy and HBO may reduce mortality and tumour recurrence. METHODS We performed a
