Induction chemotherapy for head and neck cancer: recent data // The Oncologist. 2010. 15. <...> The present work analyzes ndings of morphological investigations on the effectiveness of PDT sessions made in experimental acute bacterial peritonitis in rats. <...> Morphological changes have indicated that in the peritoneum of laboratory animals from the studied group ( abdominal cavity sanation with PDT) a sharp decrease in the intensity of in ammatory process takes place. <...> Besides, one can see an increased microcirculation, an activation of mast cell prolipheration and an increased level of eosinophil leucocytes as well as restoration of tissue integrity in opposite to the controls ( abdominal cavity sanation with 2% chlorhexidine). <...> Dougherty T.J., Gomer C., Henderson B., Jori G., Kessel D. et al. <...> Lately, photodynamic therapy (PDT) has become a frequent choice in clinical oncology along with traditional techniques (surgery, radial therapy) applied for treating primary and recurrent skin cancer. 20 patients with the discussed pathology were treated with photosensitizers Radchlorin/ Photolon and laser device «Lazon-FT» (wavelength 662 nm). <...> A complete tumour resorption has been achieved in 20 cases (100%) without any deterioration in the quality of life. <...> Two-year disease-free survival was also seen in 100% with a good/excellent cosmetic effect. <...>
