Effect of rodents on reforestation in the moumtain regions near Beijing

A long survival is rarely observed in patients demonstrating recurrent malignant lymphoma with bulky disease because of the appearance of chemoresistant tumor cells after extensive chemotherapy, and moreover the presence of bulky disease has also been consistently associated with a poorer response rate and a shortened survival, due to the fact that tumor size is the most significant factor for the treatment of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. We herein describe a case of a 53-year-old woman presenting with the chief complaint of abdominal fullness, who underwent intraoperative radiation therapy (IORT) for recurrent bulky non-Hodgkin's lymphoma in the mesenterium. The patient has had no evidence of tumor recurrence, based on the findings of regular abdominal computed tomographic scans, 60 months after initial chemotherapy and 28 months after IORT.
