Choriocarcinoma: expression of tumor- and trophoblast-associated antigens in patients with low chorionic gonadotropin excretion.

abstract：:Radiation-induced small bowel injury is a limiting factor to postoperative tumoricidal pelvic doses exceeding 4500 to 5000 cGy. Data from a review of the literature showed the inadequacy of medical measures and the bad reproducibility of radiation therapeutic attempts to decrease small intestine damage. Recent studies...
