Foreign Body Induced Sarcomas

  • Chapter
Cancer. A Comprehensive Treatise

Abstract

Several reviews on foreign body (FB) induced tumors have been published in recent years, notably those of Bischoff and Bryson (1964), who proposed the term “solid state carcinogenesis,” Bryson and Bischoff (1969), Ott (1970), and Bischoff (1972). The reader is referred to these monographs, which, taken together, provide a complete bibliography on this subject up to early 1972. There are some differences in the selection of references since the reviewers concentrated on diverse aspects of FB tumorigenesis such as histopathology, chemical and physical properties of implant materials, biocompatibility, methodology of safety testing, or historical accounts. Most of the references listed there have been omitted from the reference section of this chapter because it was not intended to create an updated all-encompassing version of earlier reviews. Instead, the emphasis is on etiological aspects, in accordance with the general orientation of this volume. By elaboration of this perspective, the scope of preceding reviews is extended and a new spectrum of relevant literature is drawn into the discussion.
