  • Title: [Experience in rehabilitating cancer patients at sanatoria and health resorts].
    Author: Tsurkerman IM, Mikhno LE.
    Journal: Vopr Onkol; 1982; 28(7):77-9. PubMed ID: 7101834.
    Abstract:
    The paper discusses the results of a study of the case histories of 90 cancer patients. 48 of these patients received a course of treatment including physical rehabilitative therapy, dietotherapy, mesenchemotherapy (fractionated doses of ACS Bogomoletz, zymosan, splenin), oxygen and iodine-bromine baths, mineralized water and non-specific medication (vitamins, ext. eleutherococci, methonine, cholenzyme) and psychotherapy. It is suggested that non-specific therapy generally provided at health resort establishments is indicated in radically-operated stomach and breast cancer patients who reveal no signs of recurrence or metastases. Such therapy may contribute to social and occupational rehabilitation of cancer patients.
