Breast cancer diagnosis and treatment with sentinel lymph node biopsy, axillary lymph node dissection and (neo)adjuvant radiotherapy can cause secondary lymphedema. Studies between 2007 and 2011 reported an overall incidence […]
Enhancement of flap survival through extracorporeal shock wave treatment (ESWT) is a promising new technique; however, no attempt has been made to define the optimal time point and frequency of […]
Shock waves have been shown to induce recruitment of intravenously injected endothelial progenitor cells to ischemic hind limbs in rats. We hypothesized that shock wave treatment as sole therapy would […]
Ischemic heart disease represents a collective term for a continuous disease pathophysiology, ranging from acute myocardial infarction to congestive and chronic heart failure. According to the World Health Organization (WHO) […]
Shock wave therapy (SWT) represents a clinically widely used angiogenic and thus regenerative approach for the treatment of ischaemic heart or limb disease. Despite promising results in preclinical and clinical […]
Tissue-engineered xenografts represent a promising treatment option in heart valve disease. However, inflammatory response leading to graft failure and incomplete in vitro repopulation with recipient cells remain challenging. Shock waves […]
The main aim of our research in this field is to regenerate infarcted myocardium, respectively the hibernating myocardium. We use LAD ligation models – chronic, acute and ischemia/ reperfusion – […]
