Title: [Complications of combined therapy for stomach cancer]. Author: Privalov AV, Vazhenin AV. Journal: Vopr Onkol; 2003; 49(1):88-92. PubMed ID: 12715378. Abstract: An original classification of complications of combined treatment for gastric cancer is suggested. The results of treatment of 300 cases are evaluated. The qualitative and quantitative characteristics of complications after combined treatment differ from those of surgery alone. They are mostly transient in nature and cannot influence the strategy of therapy, nor do they contribute to a significant rise in mortality rates. According to the present results, no complications should ever justify a refusal to undertake combined treatment.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
