One hundred thirty-six patients with colorectal and breast cancer were enrolled in a retrospective study using radioimmunoguided surgery (RIGS) with Iodine-125 (I125) radiolabeled B72.3 (Group A, 73 patients) and F023C5 (Group B, 63 patients) monoclonal antibodies (MAbs). The correlation between intraoperative tumor-to-normal tissue (T/NT)...

Subclavian percutaneous access with reservoir placement has been shown to be difficult or contraindicated in some patients. Of 465 cancer patients who required a port placement between January 1992 to January 1995, 41 (8.8%) had alternative percutaneous femoral access with a totally implantable port reservoir located in the abdomen because of...

ne hundred ninety-six patients undergoing surgical treatment for digestive tract cancer were recruited in a polycentric, multistep study to value significant differences of pre-operative nutritional and immunologic parameters between patients with or without post-operative infections. Such parameters might be useful for the identification of...

The authors review the pathogenesis of locoregional recurrences of rectal cancer, pointing out clues for the diagnosis and staging of the disease which are valuable for the definition of a treatment strategy. Surgery is the mainstay of any attempt to cure those recurrences that are amenable to radical resection; over and above the diagnostic...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Over the last decade, lymphatic mapping and sentinel lymph node (sN) biopsy have greatly increased the possibility of identifying nodal metastasis in clinically node-negative patients with melanoma and breast cancer, thus improving the accuracy of pathologic staging. Recently, sN biopsy has been applied also in...

Abstract Radioimmunoguided surgery (RIGS) with radiolabeled monoclonal antibodies (MoAbs) has been reported as useful in second-look colorectal cancer procedures to improve surgical decision-making by helping avoid needless extensive surgery and expanding curative resection to sites of recurrence that have been missed previously. Sixteen...

Abstract Sixty-four patients with recurrent or metastatic colorectal cancer underwent radioimmunoguided surgery (RIGS). Thirty patients (Group A) were preoperatively injected with radiolabeled monoclonal antibody (MAb) B72.3, a whole IgG1 that reacts with tumor-associated glycoprotein (TAG-72) antigen. Thirty-four patients (Group B) were given...

Surgical experience on the management of early gastric carcinoma (EGC) related to a series of 54 subjects was observed from 1974 to 1984. Thirty-four patients were male, 20 were female; median age was 61.84 (range 22-79) years. Malignancy always occurred in the middle or distal third of the stomach. A partial subtotal gastrectomy (two-thirds of...

Abstract PURPOSE: To assess the role of radioimmunoguided surgery (RIGS) using a handheld intraoperative gamma-detecting probe (GDP) to identify neoplastic disease after primary chemotherapy in locally advanced breast cancer (LABC) patients injected with iodine 125-labeled monoclonal antibodies (MAbs). PATIENTS AND METHODS: Twenty-one patients...

Abstract BACKGROUND: Angiosarcoma (AS) accounts for 1 to 2% of all soft tissue sarcoma. Both primary and secondary AS may occur, the latter being reported in the upper extremity with lymphedema after extended radical mastectomy for breast cancer (postmastectomy AS) or following radiotherapy of the breast, the thoracic wall, or other sites...

In a phase-I-study recombinant interleukin-2 (rIL-2) in a dose from 0.01 to 0.3 mg/m2/day for 7 to 14 days was infused intraperitoneally. Side effects were fever and fluid retention. 2 patients showed a bacterial peritonitis after paracentesis. The investigations showed that the intraperitoneal (i.p.) administration of interleukin-2 activates...
