Said resector balloon (1) is composed of a resection tip (2); a resection part (3) that is swollen or inflated in such tube-like organs (7) and is displaced or moved back and forth therein to provide tumor resection; a hardening surface (4) provided on the outer surface of said resection part (3) to shave and destroy such tumoral tissues; a catheter section (5) providing access to an endoluminal site; and an injection terminal (6) capable to inflate said resection part (3) by injecting air or fluid.

An improved method of inducing whole-body hyperthermia and enhanced anti-tumor immune response through inoculation of a fever virus with nil mortality and subsequent injection of irradiated tumor cells derived from the patient. This therapy will safely reduce the tumor burden by 90-99.9% by physical means (fever), before raising interferon levels to over 250 times baseline. The Activated Lymphokine Killer cells produced by these high interferon levels are capable of killing any cell expressing viral or tumor antigens, even those which had previously escaped immune surveillance. As a final step in the process, a specific class of Cytotoxic T Lymphocytes programmed to destroy the patient's own cancer cells will be produced by repeated inoculation of irradiated cancer cells harvested from the patient. Through a combination of three methods of therapy never previously integrated into a single regimen, it is logical to state that this therapy has a high probability of completely eradicating cancer cells from the patient. In addition, this therapy provides for life-long immunity to the reoccurrence of the disease.
