Abstract:
The paper presents data on the effect of 5-fluorouracil (5-FU)-impregnated Coletex napkins on rats and mice with transplantable subcutaneous tumors of different histological patterns: Pliss lymphosarcoma, Walker carcinosarcoma and Ehrlich carcinoma. Since the napkins showed antitumor activity it is suggested that they might find application in treating a number of oncological pathologies, particularly, skin lesions and ulcerated and necrotized tumors.
