Popis: | Electrochemotherapy is an electroporationbased treatment successfully used in palliation of cutaneous and subcutaneous tumors. Its high response rate encourage further research on electrochemotherapy applied in deep tissues as a minimally invasive procedure for primary tumors. In order to assess electrochemotherapy effectiveness in breast primary tumors in Mexico, it is presented a review of background, current aspects and perspectives of this technique reported in Europe thus the identification of technological requirements to be attended are discussed. |
