Resumo

The possible value of adjuvant PDT of the open surgical wound after tumor resection in a clinical situation was the goal of our study. Nude mice allow heterotransplantation of human oral cancer material. Such tumor particles show an individual take and growth rate and possibly variable reaction to PDT.
