Postoperative radiation in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma and target volume delineation
Esophageal cancer is the sixth leading cause of cancer death worldwide, and patients who are treated with surgery alone, without neoadjuvant therapies, experience frequent relapses. Whether postoperative therapies could reduce the recurrence or improve overall survival is still controversial for these patients. The purpose of our review is to figure out the value of postoperative adjuvant thera...
متن کاملClinical target volume (CTV) in postoperation radiotherapy of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma could benefit from the detection of telomere length in lymph node
Background: This study evaluated the relation between telomere length in lymph node (LN) and prognosis of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). Materials and Methods: LNs collected from 50 patients were assessed by pathological examination and quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR), which was used for detecting telomere length. The relation between cli...
متن کاملTongue Squamous Cell Carcinoma: A Clinical Study
Background and Objectives: Squamous cell carcinoma of the tongue (SCCOT) is the most common malignant neoplasm in oral cavity. At the time of the diagnosis of SCCOT regional metastases with a high mortality rate are common, which is due to the extensive lymphatic system drainage of the tongue. Although the level of healthcare has significantly improved, the survival rate is still low with an...
متن کاملFDG-PET/CT imaging for staging and target volume delineation in conformal radiotherapy of anal carcinoma
BACKGROUND FDG-PET/CT imaging has an emerging role in staging and treatment planning of various tumor locations and a number of literature studies show that also the carcinoma of the anal canal may benefit from this diagnostic approach. We analyzed the potential impact of FDG-PET/CT in stage definition and target volume delineation of patients affected by carcinoma of the anal canal and candida...
متن کاملThe Cancer Stem Cell Hypothesis in Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma: A New Target for the Treatment
Within a single tumor clone, cells have significantly different abilities to proliferate and form new tumors. This has led to the hypothesis that most cells in a cancer have a limited ability to divide and only a small subset of distinct cells, the cancer stem cells (CSCs), has the capacity to self-renew and form new tumors . It has been proposed that the development of tumors is based exclusiv...
