Background/Objectives: Hypofractionated radiation therapy (Hypo-RT) schedules may offer radiobiological, patient convenience, and healthcare resource advantages over standard fractionated (S-RT) for glioblastoma (GBM). Additionally, simulated integrated boost (SIB) Hypo-RT is proven to be an effective safe treatment. We report on our experience regarding progression-free survival (PFS), overall (OS), RT-related toxicities in GBM patients treated with S-RT. Methods: Patients IDH-wildtype...
Background: This study investigated the risk of reconstruction failure after mastectomy, immediate breast reconstruction, and radiotherapy to either a temporary tissue expander or permanent implant. Methods: Records women treated at single institution between June 1997 December 2011 were reviewed. Two patient groups identified based on type reconstruction: followed by exchange with implant The endpoint was rate failure, defined as replacement, loss implant, conversion flap. Results:...
Glioblastoma (GBM) is a very poor-prognosis brain tumor. To date, maximal excision followed by radiochemotherapy, in 30 fractions, the standard approach. Limited data are present literature about hypofractionated radiotherapy (hypo-RT) GBM poor prognosis patients. Thus, this retrospective study was conducted to evaluate efficacy and toxicity of hypo-RT with simultaneous integrated boost (SIB) association temozolomide (TMZ) patient setting.Poor-prognosis patients underwent surgery (complete,...
Abstract Aims Stereotactic arrhythmia radioablation (STAR) is a novel therapeutic approach for cardiac arrhythmias. The aim of this trial to investigate the feasibility STAR treatment paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (AF) in elderly patients. Methods and results Inclusion criteria were age >70 years, symptomatic AF, antiarrhythmic drugs failure, or intolerance. All patients underwent 4D computed tomography simulation. clinical target volume was identified area around pulmonary veins...
Treatment approach for elderly patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) is difficult. The present prospective phase-II trial evaluated LINAC-based stereotactic arrhythmia radioablation safety in this population. reported data of the first 5 worldwide, showed no side effects, absence AF episodes and without antiarrhythmic drugs.ClinicalTrials.gov, identifier: NCT04575662.
Sustained monomorphic ventricular tachycardia (SMVT) is a life-threatening condition that often observed in patients with structural heart disease. Catheter ablation (CA) an effective and well-established treatment for the scar-related tachycardias (VTs). Sometimes, due to patient fragility or contraindications CA, noninvasive procedure required. In these cases, VT stereotactic arrhythmia radioablation (STAR) SMVTs supported by CardioInsight mapping system seems be promising approach.
