Hyperthermic isolated limb perfusion (HILP) with various chemotherapeutic agents has been used for the local treatment of high-grade soft tissue sarcomas (STS) of the extremities, but in most cases, with a disappointing result. Most such regimens certainly should not be considered superior to surger

A 61-year-old man with an intractible and progressively disabling cutaneous non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) in the lower limb was treated with sequential regional isolated perfusion at 10-day intervals. The first perfusion was hyperthermic (40.2-43.1 "C tumor-temperature); the second was at controlled
## BACKGROUND. Tumor necrosis factor (TNF), hyperthermia, and cisplatin have synergistic cytotoxicity against cancer cells in vitro. This combination may be well suited to the regional treatment of peritoneal tumor spread in patients. Continuous hyperthermic peritoneal perfusion (CHPP) is a techni
The clinical success of the application of tumor necrosis factor-Ξ± (TNFΞ±) in isolated limb perfusions in patients with advanced sarcomas, melanomas and other tumors has renewed the interest in this agent as an anticancer drug. At the Rotterdam Cancer Center, we have developed an interactive preclini
