Salvage brachytherapy for locally recurrent prostate cancer after external beam radiotherapy
External beam radiotherapy (EBRT) is a standard treatment for prostate cancer. Despite the development of novel radiotherapy techniques such as intensity-modulated conformal radiotherapy, the risk of local recurrence after EBRT has not been obviated. Various local treatment options (including salvage prostatectomy, brachytherapy, cryotherapy, and high-intensity focused ultrasound [HIFU]) have b...
متن کاملSalvage SBRT for Previously Irradiated Lung Cancer
Purpose: Patients with locally recurrent lung cancer after definitive radiation therapy pose a challenge in management. Surgery is often not an option and chemotherapy offers poor long-term local control. Stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) was investigated in an attempt to salvage locally recurrent lung cancer. Materials and Methods: From March, 2009 to January, 2010, 8 patients who had prev...

Objectives: To evaluate the current status of focal therapy as the salvage treatment option for patients with recurrent prostate cancer after established therapy (radiation, surgery) failure for localized tumor. Methods: A MedLine search using specified search terms was done on December 23, 2011. This research rendered 346 papers related to High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU), 644 papers r...
متن کاملPreliminary results of (125)I interstitial brachytherapy for locally recurrent parotid gland cancer in previously irradiated patients.
BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was to analyze the treatment of recurrent parotid gland cancers with radioactive iodine ((125)I) seed implantation. METHODS Fifteen patients with recurrent previously irradiated parotid gland cancers were treated with postoperative (125)I seed implantation between April 2004 and June 2009. Local control, survival rates, and side effects were retrospectivel...
