Radical Radiotherapy for Prostate Cancer
1. There have been no randomised trials comparing brachytherapy or IMRT with conventional radiotherapy. 2. ADJUVANT radiotherapy has recently been shown to improve progression-free survival after radical surgery in patients with tumour at excision margins or infiltrating seminal vesicles. 3. Hormone therapy improves outcomes (progression free survival and survival) after radical radiotherapy fo...

متن کاملPre-radiotherapy PSA level as a predictor for biochemical control in prostate cancer patients receiving radiotherapy after radical prostatectomy.
BACKGROUND To report the outcome of patients receiving radiotherapy (RT) after radical prostatectomy (RP). METHODS Between May 2001 and December 2008, 53 consecutive cases of prostate adenocarcinoma treated with RP and RT were reviewed. RESULTS A total of 49 patients were eligible for this study.

متن کاملThe impact of benign prostatic hyperplasia on bladder volume in radiotherapy of prostate cancer
Background: Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is a common disease among older men and many patients with prostate cancer (PC) also have BPH. External beam radiation therapy (EBRT) is one of the important treatments for PC, nevertheless, few studies have analyzed the effect of BPH on EBRT. We tried to know the risk of bladder toxicity by analyzing the bladder volume variability in patients with...
متن کاملThe effect of Rectal Retractor, a rectal protector on rectal dose in radical prostate radiotherapy
Introduction: The close proximity of the rectum tissue to the prostate gland results in rectal toxicity during prostate radiotherapy. Rectal Retractor (RR) is a rectal displacement technique that inserts into the rectum, as a result, the lateral and dorsal part of the rectal wall push away from high dose areas. The aim of this study was to investigate the dosimetric consequence...
