Sacrum colon-rectal cancer metastasis: microwave ablation for palliative pain treatment.

Local treatment of bone metastasis (BM) remains controversial in colon-rectum carcinoma for pain control. A patient developed a sacrum BM 4years after a left colectomy for an adenocarcinoma. Metastasis was treated in one session of CT-guided microwave ablation showing good pain control immediately after and on follow-up at four months.

Effect of external magnetic field on IV 99mTc-labeled aminosilane-coated iron oxide nanoparticles: demonstration in a rat model: special report.

Among the most interesting applications of ferromagnetic nanoparticles (NPs) in medicine is the potential for localizing pharmacologically or radioactively tagged agents directly to selected tissues selected by an adjustable external magnetic field. This concept is demonstrated by the application external magnetic field on IV Tc-labeled aminosilane-coated iron oxide NPs in a rat model. In a model comparing a rat with a 0.

Multiple metastases of soft tissue visualized by technetium-99m-methylene diphosphonate scintigraphy: a case report.

Introduction: Lungs and liver are the most common sites of colorectal cancer metastases after regional lymph nodes, but metastases to unusual sites are reported. Heterotopic bone formation in soft tissues from colorectal cancer is a rare metastatic occurrence.

Case Presentation: We present the case of a 29-year-old Caucasian man affected by colon adenocarcinoma with multiple soft tissue metastases visualized by magnetic resonance imaging, computed tomography scan and scintigraphic bone scan.
