Combination treatment with antibiotics and photodynamic therapy in refractory mycobacterium marinum infection: A case report

Mycobacterium marinum: A Case-Based Narrative Review of Diagnosis and Management

“…Surgical debridement may be considered as an adjunct to medical treatment in patients with extensive disease, in patients with deep structure disease (such as osteomyelitis, tenosynovitis, arthritis, and in closed spaces of the hand), and in patients who fail to respond to standard treatment [ 59 , 60 ]. Adjunctive photodynamic therapy has been used in some antibiotic-resistant cases with promising results [ 61 , 62 ].…”

Red cell membrane-coating Prussian blue for combined photothermal and NO gas therapy for nasopharyngeal carcinoma

“…[10][11][12] This synergistic integration encompasses chemotherapy, pneumatotherapy, photodynamic therapy, gene therapy, radiation therapy, and various combination therapies, collectively aiming to enhance the treatment efficacy. 13,14 Gas therapy has emerged as a promising approach to cancer treatment, and has garnered significant attention from the medical community. One such candidate, nitric oxide (NO), has remarkable properties and unique antitumor mechanisms that make it a particularly intriguing candidate for cancer treatment.…”
