Abstract
The analysis of the results of conservative and palliative treatment of cancer patients with the use of loco-regional hyperthermia (LRHT) alone or in combination with various methods of anticancer therapy was carried out. The data obtained showed that LRHT significantly increases the immediate results of radiation and / or chemotherapy, has a pronounced palliative effect, and in some cases provides long-term local control. In incurable patients who have exhausted the "limit" of chemotherapy and / or radiation therapy, its use for palliative purposes is also possible in mono-mode.
