An understanding of the mechanisms responsible for tumor-associated edema involves the elucidation of the role played by a number of intra-related processes. These include (i) the permeability of new tumor microvessels that are associated with tumor angiogenesis; (ii) alterations in microvascular permeability due to factors secreted by tumor cells; (iii) immunological mechanisms and (iv) increased microvessel permeability associated with inflammation. The rationale for a role for inflammatory processes in tumor-associated edema has been outlined and the role of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs in modulating experimental and human tumor-associated edema has been explored.
