title: [Hyperthermia in cancer therapy].
abstract: Hyperthermia is being re-evaluated and currently used in the treatment of malignant tumor. There have been numerous in vitro and in vivo experimental data presented which confirm the selective heat damage on malignant cells. This review will attempt to summarize the information on experimental and clinical reports concerning hyperthermia. The results of extracorporeally induced hyperthermia of our series are also mentioned.
