Abstract
A significant therapeutic effect of photodynamic therapy (PDT) is shown in a patient with extensive vulvar cancer after ineffective surgical and chemoradiotherapy. During the year, three courses of local PDT with a photosensitizer based on chlorin e6 were carried out. The photosensitizer was administered intravenously three hours before irradiation at a dose of 1.2 mg/kg. For laser irradiation (662 nm) of the vulvar tumor, a light guide for external irradiation was used: the power density was 0.2 W/cm 2 , the light dose was from 100 to 250 J/cm 2 . As a result of treatment, tumor regression and stable remission are observed. The patient remains under observation.
期刊介绍:
The main goal of the journal – to promote the development of Russian biomedical photonics and implementation of its advances into medical practice. The primary objectives: - Presentation of up-to-date results of scientific and in research and scientific and practical (clinical and experimental) activity in the field of biomedical photonics. - Development of united Russian media for integration of knowledge and experience of scientists and practitioners in this field. - Distribution of best practices in laser medicine to regions. - Keeping the clinicians informed about new methods and devices for laser medicine - Approval of investigations of Ph.D candidates and applicants.
