Skin Reaction in Radiation Therapy for Breast Cancer
Introduction The first medical intervention for many breast cancer patients is breast conserving surgery (BCS) and/or modified radical mastectomy (MRM). Most of these patients undergo radiation therapy, following surgery. The most common side-effect of breast radiotherapy is skin damage. In the present study, the severity of acute skin changes and the underlying causes were investigated in pati...
متن کاملPre-operative systemic therapy in locally advanced breast cancer: a single institution experience
BACKGROUND Locally advanced breast cancer (LABC) is common in developing countries and it frequently affects younger women. Patients do very poorly when treated by locoregional therapy alone; therefore, pre-operative systemic therapy (PST) is commonly used. MATERIALS AND METHODS Medical records of 64 Saudi patients with LABC treated with PST in a single institution were retrospectively review...
متن کاملRandomized phase II trial of urethral sparing intensity modulated radiation therapy in low-risk prostate cancer: implications for focal therapy
BACKGROUND Low-risk prostate cancer (PCa) patients have excellent outcomes, with treatment modality often selected by perceived effects on quality of life. Acute urinary symptoms are common during external beam radiotherapy (EBRT), while chronic symptoms have been linked to urethral dose. Since most low-risk PCa occurs in the peripheral zone (PZ), we hypothesized that EBRT using urethral sparin...
متن کاملI-124 pre-therapy dosimetry for the treatment of differentiated thyroid cancer: A single center experience
Introduction:The maximum tolerable activity (MTA) of I-131 in radioiodine therapy is an established surrogate quantity to ensure that the therapeutic activity does not produce severe damages to the bone marrow and lung. The aim of this study was to estimate the MTAs for high-risk patients using I-124 pre-therapy dosimetry and to compare the results with published literature. <...
متن کاملRadiation Therapy for Breast Cancer
Radiation therapy represents an important aspect of breast cancer treatment. Application of irradiation reduces the incidence of local disease recurrence and improves overall survival of breast cancer patients. Studies have shown that adjuvant irradiation after breast-conserving surgery has the same result as a mastectomy, so adjuvant radiotherapy enables sparing surgery in breast cancer patien...
