October 17th, 2006. Pathological recognition of diffuse malignant mesothelioma of the pleura: the significance of the historical perspective as regards this signal tumor
Because DMM is increasing on a worldwide basis and is making its appearance in the developing world, where it has not previously been diagnosed, appreciation of how the disease came to be noticed sheds light on its causation. As a signal tumor for exposure to asbestos, and knowing that all special exposures contribute to the development of the disease, knowledge of its continuing escalation underscores the importance of recognition of previously unimplicated or occult exposures for reasons of public health in both developed and developing countries.
October 17th, 2006. The biological differences between ovarian serous carcinoma and diffuse peritoneal malignant mesothelioma
The methods used were immunohistochemistry, Western blotting, and RT-PCR. DMPM specimens showed significantly higher expression of p75 (P.
Conclusions: The morbidity and mortality results for cytoreductive surgery and perioperative intraperitoneal chemotherapy for patients with DMPM were within the acceptable range for major gastrointestinal surgery. Grade IV morbidity was associated with more extensive cytoreduction.
