Combined diverticulectomy and anti-incontinence surgery for patients with urethral diverticulum and stress urinary incontinence: is anti-incontinence surgery really necessary?
This clinical approach could avoid the potential complications of anti-incontinence surgery.
We demonstrated for the first time a simple, non-toxic and highly effective preconditioning regimen to selectively enhance PpIX fluorescence and the response of ALA-PDT in glioma cells. This finding suggests that the combined treatment of glioma cells with calcitriol plus ALA may provide an effective and selective therapeutic modality to enhance ALA-induced PpIX fluorescent quality for improving discrimination of tumor tissue and PDT efficacy.
