Intracarotid chemotherapy with etoposide and cisplatin for malignant brain tumors.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Mortality from invasive bladder cancer is common, even with high-quality care. Thus, the best opportunities to improve outcomes may precede the diagnosis. Although screening currently is not recommended, better medical care of patients who are at risk (ie, those with hematuria) has the potential to improve o...
