|
| Description: |
| Patients: This study involved 43 patients with malignant pleural mesothelioma. Only a subset of patients were administered the radiotherapy treatment.
Treatment: The treatment consisted of a single-dose of radiotherapy to prevent the metastasis that often takes place (i.e. 19% of the time) in the chest wall after a thoracoscopy. Toxicity: Toxicities were described as mild with nothing over grade 1. Results: There was no statistical difference in metastasis between the patients that received the radiotherapy, and those that did not. The overall median survival was 8.7 months. Correspondence: Dr. S. Bydder |
“My Name is Paul Kraus and I Have Survived Mesothelioma for Over 20 Years.”
In 1997 I was diagnosed with mesothelioma. The doctors gave me just a few short months to live...
But here I am, 20 years later, alive and well.
I wrote a book explaining how I became the longest living mesothelioma survivor in the world.
Today, I'd like to give you a copy for free because I want more people to survive this disease.
All you have to do is click the button below now. You will receive the book within 72 hours.
I wish you good health.
Sincerely,
"It has been over four years now and I can honestly say I am doing great. I highly recommend this book because it is inspirational and educational."
