Section of Surgical Oncology, University of Wisconsin School of Medicine and Public Health, Madison, WI, USA
Ann Surg Oncol 18:3848-57. 2011..Immunotherapeutic cancer protocols often rely on the ability to promote proliferative expansion of tumor-specific T-cell, but the influence of cancer on in vivo T-cell expansion remains largely undefined...
Importance of low preoperative platelet count in selecting patients for resection of hepatocellular carcinoma: a multi-institutional analysisShishir K Maithel
