Postoperative complications with cryotherapy in bone tumors
The technique of cryosurgery has been used to control local recurrence in a variety of benign and malignant bone tumors. Early studies revealed significant complication rates (25%) that included fracture, infection, and soft tissue injury. Our method of cryosurgery has yielded excellent tumor control with improved complication rates. The objective of this study is to determine the characteristi...

متن کاملRole of denosumab in the management of skeletal complications in patients with bone metastases from solid tumors
Skeletal-related events (SREs) including pain, fractures, and hypercalcemia are a major source of morbidity for cancer patients with bone metastases. The receptor activator of NF-κB ligand (RANKL) is a key mediator of osteoclast formation and activity in normal bone physiology as well as cancer-induced bone resorption. The first commercially available drug that specifically targets and inhibits...
متن کاملBone turnover markers as predictors of skeletal complications in prostate cancer, lung cancer, and other solid tumors.
BACKGROUND Whether bone markers have prognostic value in patients with bone metastases is unknown. We investigated this question in patients with bone metastases secondary to prostate cancer and to non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and other solid tumors assigned to the placebo arms of two phase III trials of zoledronic acid. METHODS Levels of the urinary bone resorption marker N-telopeptide...
متن کاملAutologous bone marrow transplantation in pediatric solid tumors.
During the last 5 years massive chemotherapy and autologous bone marrow transplantation have been increasingly explored in the treatment of pediatric solid tumors, mainly for neuroblastoma, Ewing's sarcoma, rhabdomyosarcoma, Wilms' tumor, germ cell tumors, osteosarcoma, and retinoblastoma. Although the disease course could be changed successfully in most instances, the long-term survival has no...
