Three-dimensional reconstruction of colon carcinoma metastases in liver.
Resection of liver metastases in patients with colon cancer increases survival but success depends on removal of all tumour tissue. For this purpose, understanding of spatial relationships between metastases and liver architecture is essential. Because metastatic cancer growth is essentially a three-dimensional (3D) event, we decided to apply 3D reconstruction techniques to study these spatial ...
متن کاملColon carcinoma metastases with extension to chest wall and pericardium
Management of locally advanced colon cancer metastases is challenging and operation carries an increased risk of morbidity and mortality. The knowledge of exact sites of involvement can aid the surgeon to make a decision regarding complete resection or palliative therapy. PET/CT scan is an advantage in this setting because metabolic alterations often precede the anatomic changes; moreover, it c...
متن کاملMulti-modal Assessment of Longitudinal Growth of Liver Metastases in a Mouse Model of Colon Carcinoma
INTRODUCTION The liver is a common site for distal metastases in colon and rectal cancers, and if detected early has an improved prognosis. A number of studies in the clinical domain have analyzed the relative merits of different imaging modalities for improved and earlier detection of liver metastases. To the best of our knowledge, such a rigorous study has not been undertaken in preclinical r...
متن کاملModulation of hypoxia in murine liver metastases of colon carcinoma by nicotinamide and carbogen.
There is increasing evidence that modulation of tumor hypoxia may improve therapy outcome. However, most preclinical data are derived from subcutaneous rather than orthotopic tumor models. We investigated the effect of the hypoxia-modulating agents nicotinamide and carbogen on tumor hypoxia, tumor blood perfusion, and proliferative activity in liver metastases of the murine colon carcinoma line...
متن کاملLiver metastases of colon cancer. New therapeutic approaches. Neoadjuvant chemotherapy
Colon cancer witnesses one of most exciting and evolving times in the latest years. About 30% of patients with isolated liver colon metastases can now be cured through a multidisciplinary approach of the disease. New systemic treatments have moved the median survival of metastatic disease from 12 months four years ago to 20 months and beyond. Incorporation of new biologic treatments into the ne...
