Stereotactic radiotherapy for early stage non-small cell lung cancer
Stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) represents a consolidated treatment option for patients with medically inoperable early stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The clinical evidence accumulated in the past decade supports its use as an alternative to surgery with comparable survival outcomes. Due to its limited toxicity, SBRT is also applicable to elderly patients with very poor baselin...
متن کاملRadiotherapy for Locoregional Recurrent Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer
Purpose: To retrospectively evaluate the outcomes and complications of curative radiotherapy for locoregionally recurrent non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Materials and Methods: From 2004 to 2008, 21 patients received curative radiotherapy for locoregionally recurrent NSCLC without systemic metastasis after surgery. At the time of recurrence, the median age was 70 years (range 49∼81 years), ...
متن کاملRadiotherapy for small-cell lung cancer.
The role of radiation therapy in the primary management of small cell lung cancer is very much a matter of current debate. Its value in palliative treatment is unquestioned. Disappointment in the apparent inability to demonstrate improvement in survival in some randomized studies as a result of locoregional radiotherapy and prophylactic cranial irradiation may be due to the use of inappropriate...
متن کاملFDG-PET imaging for lymph node staging and pathologic tumor response after neoadjuvant treatment of non-small cell lung cancer.
PURPOSE A number of studies have demonstrated that 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (FDG-PET) is effective for staging of lung cancer. However, the efficacy of FDG-PET for staging lung cancer after neoadjuvant treatment is still controversial. This study compared FDG-PET and computed tomography (CT) for lung cancer staging, and evaluated the ability of the two methods to pred...
متن کاملVinorelbine-based chemo-radiotherapy in non-small cell lung cancer.
AIMS AND BACKGROUND Concomitant radio-chemotherapy improves survival of patients with locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer, with a better local-regional control. METHODS AND STUDY DESIGN We report our experience with vinorelbine-based chemotherapy in neoadjuvant and radical settings in 43 patients. Regimens consisted of cisplatin plus vinorelbine in 74.4% patients and carboplatin plus ...
