摘要
Three patients suffering from pain arising from renal and metastasing prostate and breast cancer were successfully treated with transdermal buprenorphine. The three cases demonstrate that transdermal buprenorphine is an easy-to-use and effective therapeutic option for the treatment of advanced cancer pain, that it can also be used in opioid rotation as an alternative after formerly applied steps II or III opioids have failed and that long-term treatment without dose escalation or compromise in tolerability is possible.
