Intraoperative Radiotherapy for Locally Advanced
Background: To present the technique and dose distribution of intraoperative radiotherapy (IORT) for prostate cancer. Patients and Methods: Pelvic lymphadenectomy, prostate IORT and radical retropubic prostatectomy was performed in 11 prostate cancer patients. Prostate thickness and rectum depth were measured with intraoperative ultrasound. IORT was delivered by a mobile linear accelerator in t...
متن کاملIntraoperative Radiotherapy for Locally Advanced Rectal Cancer
PURPOSE Although intraoperative radiotherapy (IORT) is known to be a method that can reduce local recurrence in locally advanced colorectal cancer, it is not widely used. The aim of this study was to report our experience with IORT for locally advanced rectal cancer. METHODS From 1991 to 1994, nine patients with locally advanced rectal cancer received IORT. External beam radiotherapy was give...
متن کاملRadiotherapy and Concurrent Chemo-Radiotherapy in Locally Advanced Hypopharyngeal Cancers--A Hospital Registry Based Analysis.
BACKGROUND The survival of patients with hypopharyngeal cancer is low amongst head and neck cancer cases. The incidence rates of hypopharyngeal cancers in our population are amongst the highest in the world and there are limited data available on the literature on varied responses to first course of treatment with radiotherapy (RT) and concurrent chemo-radiotherapy (CRT) in our population. MA...
متن کاملLaparoscopic abdominoperineal resection with intraoperative radiotherapy for locally advanced low rectal cancer.
AIMS Intraoperative radiotherapy (IORT) for locally advanced rectal cancer as an integral part of multimodal treatment, may lead to reduced local recurrence but it is not routinely used. The aim of this paper is to describe our experience with IORT in the treatment of patients with locally advanced adenocarcinoma of the lower third of the rectum. MATERIAL AND METHODS Laparoscopic abdominoperi...
متن کاملDosimetric comparison between intensity modulated radiotherapy and three dimensional conformal radiotherapy planning in patients with locally advanced cervical carcinoma
Background: External beam radiotherapy (EBRT) is mainstay of treatment in patients with locally advanced cervical carcinoma (LACC). Three dimensional conformal radiotherapy (3DCRT) and intensity modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) are mainly used in EBRT. However which one is superior is still controversial. Materials and Methods: Forty patients of LACC treated with IMRT were selected for this study....
