Identifying Patients Who May Be Candidates for a Clinical Trial of Salvage Accelerated Partial Breast Irradiation after Previous Whole Breast Irradiation
Background and Objectives. Accelerated partial breast irradiation (APBI) has been proposed as an alternative to salvage mastectomy for patients with ipsilateral breast tumor recurrence (IBTR) after prior breast conservation. We studied factors that are associated with a more favorable local recurrence profile that could make certain patients eligible for APBI. Methods. Between 1980 and 2005, 15...

متن کاملPartial breast irradiation for early breast cancer.
BACKGROUND Breast conserving therapy for women with breast cancer consists of local excision of the tumour (achieving clear margins) followed by radiation therapy (RT). RT is given to sterilize tumour cells that may remain after surgery to decrease the risk of local tumour recurrence. Most true recurrences occur in the same quadrant as the original tumour. Whole breast RT may not protect agains...
متن کاملIMPACT OF ORIENTATION WITH THE VIRTUAL TOUR METHOD ON PREOPERATIVE ANXIETY OF PATIENTS WHO ARE CANDIDATES FOR OPEN HEART SURGERY
Background & Aims: Many complications could follow the operation as one of many treatments for cardiac problems. Anxiety is one of these complications, which could be perilous for patients affecting their hemodynamics before surgery. This research aimed to determine the effect of virtual tour training and orientation by nurses on patients' anxiety levels. Materials & Methods: This study is a p...
متن کاملPartial-breast irradiation versus whole-breast irradiation for early-stage breast cancer: a cost-effectiveness analysis.
PURPOSE Accelerated partial-breast irradiation (PBI) is a new treatment paradigm for patients with early-stage breast cancer. Although PBI may lead to greater local recurrence rates, it may be cost-effective because of better tolerability and lower cost. We aim to determine the incremental cost-effectiveness of PBI compared with whole-breast radiation therapy (WBRT) for estrogen receptor-positi...
