Permeability index and radiation response in T2 laryngeal cancers

The treatment of early laryngeal cancers (T1-T2 N0): surgery or irradiation?

BACKGROUND Carcinoma of the larynx is the most common cancer affecting the head and neck region. In Northern Europe, early laryngeal cancer is almost universally treated by irradiation, but elsewhere it is treated by surgery. The main aim of this study was to determine whether there was any difference in survival between the two main therapeutic options. The secondary aim was to assess speech a...

Vascular Permeability and Drug Delivery in Cancers

The endothelial barrier strictly maintains vascular and tissue homeostasis, and therefore modulates many physiological processes such as angiogenesis, immune responses, and dynamic exchanges throughout organs. Consequently, alteration of this finely tuned function may have devastating consequences for the organism. This is particularly obvious in cancers, where a disorganized and leaky blood ve...

Photodynamic therapy of laryngeal cancers

Carcinoma of the larynx accounts for 25-30 percent of all carcinomas of the head and neck. Early carcinomas of the larynx (Tis or T1) and severe dysplasia are presently treated with either radiation therapy or surgery alone. Radiation therapy, however, has significant disadvantages including mucositis during and for potential prolonged periods after therapy, permanently altered voice quality, d...
