Objective: To analyze the results of endovascular embolization of malignant tumors and liver metastases.

Material And Methods: We analyzed international studies on the treatment of patients with neoplastic liver lesions and complications after regional endovascular embolization following leakage of chemotherapeutic drugs from the target vessel and negative systemic effects. The results of embolization of liver arteries without chemotherapeutic drugs were also analyzed. We reviewed the PubMed, The Cochrane Library, Web of Science databases, as well as Russian scientific and practical journals.

Conclusion: Literature data indicate high clinical effectiveness of interventional treatment of patients with malignant neoplasms and metastatic liver damage.

Significance of adding chemotherapy to radiotherapy in the treatment of T2N0 glottic cancer.

Jpn J Clin Oncol

January 2025

Department of Otorhinolaryngology, Head and Neck Surgery, Yokohama City University, School of Medicine, Yokohama, Japan.

The prognosis for T2N0 glottic squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) is generally favorable, with a 5-year overall survival rate of 79%-96% achieved with radiotherapy (RT), the standard nonsurgical treatment for this condition. However, the local control rate for T2N0 glottic SCC treated with RT remains suboptimal, with a 5-year local control rate of only 65%-80%. Local residual disease or recurrence following RT for T2N0 glottic SCC often leads to difficulties in laryngeal preservation.

Objectives: To propose a new statistical procedure to analyse and present data from case-control studies clarifying the probability of causality.

Objective: To review and compare robot-assisted ipsilateral ureteroureterostomy (RALUU) and laparoscopic ipsilateral uretero-ureterostomy (LUU) in terms of efficacy and outcomes.

Methods: Clinical data of 65 children with complete renal ureteral duplication deformity admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from January 2015 to December 2022 were collected. Among these, 42 patients underwent laparoscopic ureteroureterostomy (LUU), designated as the LUU group, while 23 patients received robot-assisted laparoscopic ureteroureterostomy (RALUU), designated as the RALUU group.
