[The immunomodulating action of combined therapy together with local UHF hyperthermia in osteogenic sarcoma in children].

The paper is concerned with immunological evaluation of different stages of combined therapy with local UHF hyperthermia in children with osteogenic sarcoma. Combined therapy (polychemo- and radiotherapy) was shown to cause a decrease in the number of immunocompetent cells, to enhance imbalance of immunoregulatory T-lymphocytes, to weaken T-lymphocyte function on PHA; immunosuppressive action of combined therapy did not depend on a tumor site. The incorporation of UHF-hyperthermia in the therapeutic scheme weakened the manifestations of secondary immunodeficiency, got back to normal the structure of T-lymphocyte population. A favorable immunomodulating effect of hyperthermia was more frequently observed in patients with crural bone tumors. The effect of hyperthermia was revealed after direct influence of thermotherapy but it was absent in continuation of combined treatment.

[Combined treatment of patients with osteogenic sarcoma using local UHF-hyperthermia].

The authors present their results of combined treatment of 85 patients with osteogenic sarcoma. The results are analysed according to the method of treatment in 3 groups of the patients who had been administered different total focus doses acting on the tumour. Besides chemical and radial therapy and surgical treatment local UHF-hyperthermia was used as a modifier in the complex of therapeutic measures. It has been demonstrated that the use of local UHF-hyperthermia does not increase the risk of metastatic spreading, allows to reduce the radiation dose and by influencing the primary tumour contributes to better treatment results.

[Distribution of heat production in the tissues of the lower extremities during capacitative heating by a UHF field].

The authors described methods developed by them for measuring heat production in autopsy sections by taking pulse thermograms during local capacitative healing of tissues using special electrode devices filled in with liquid dielectric. Thermograms of heat production distribution on limb sections were shown. Qualitative peculiarities of heat production distribution determined by tissue topological structure, were analysed.
