Electrochemotherapy using thin-needle electrode improves recovery in feline nasal planum squamous cell carcinoma - a translational model.

Cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (cSCC) is a common disease in patients exposed to UV-light and human papillomavirus. Electrochemotherapy, a well-established treatment modality with minimum side effects in human and veterinary medicine, circumvents chemoresistance to bleomycin by the use of electric fields. However, patients are sensitive to the trauma produced by the insertion of the needles that lengthen recovery times, particularly cats with nasal planum cSCC.

Veterinary Guidelines for Electrochemotherapy of Superficial Tumors.

Electrochemotherapy (ECT) consists in the application of electric pulses to increase chemotherapeutic drug intake (bleomycin, cisplatin, or calcium) into the tumor cells. It has become a very valuable treatment option in veterinary oncology. It is an effective and safe treatment modality, which is not only beneficial as a palliative treatment, but also for a curative approach.

Electrochemotherapy in treatment of canine oral malignant melanoma and factors influencing treatment outcome.

Background Oral malignant melanoma is the most common, but aggressive oral cancer in dogs with poor prognosis. Electrochemotherapy (ECT) has therapeutic potential in such tumors as effective local treatment. Therefore, the aim of this prospective clinical study was to evaluate treatment effectiveness of ECT in as first line treatment for canine oral malignant melanoma, and search for factors influencing treatment outcome.
