The COVID-19 pandemic has challenged healthcare systems worldwide over the last few months, and it continues to do so. Although some restrictions are being removed, is not certain when going be definitively over. Pandemics can seen as a highly complex logistic scenario. From this perspective, of indications provided for palliative radiotherapy (PRT) during could maintained in future settings that limit possibility patients achieving symptom relief by radiotherapy. This paper two aims: (1)...
Abstract Background Purpose of this study is to explore the trade-offs between radio-induced toxicities and second malignant neoplasm (SMN) induction risk different emerging radiotherapy techniques for Hodgkin’s lymphoma (HL) through a comprehensive dosimetric analysis on representative clinical model. Methods Three planning target volume (PTV i ) scenarios female patient with supradiaphragmatic HL were used as models purpose study. Five treatment radiation simulated: an anterior-posterior...
Glioblastoma multiforme is the most common and malignant primary brain tumor in adults. The current standard of care for glioblastoma surgical resection to extent feasible, followed by adjuvant radiotherapy plus temozolomide, given concomitantly with after radiotherapy. This report a prospective observational study 43 cases treated Department Radiotherapy, University Rome La Sapienza, Italy. We examine relationship between pathologic features objective response rate adult patients...
Malnutrition is a common condition in cancer patients which usually associated with functional limitations, as well increased morbidity and mortality. Based on the support of young sections Italian Association Medical Oncology (AIOM), Radiotherapy Clinical (AIRO) Society Surgical (SICO) merged into NutriOnc Research Group, we performed multidisciplinary national survey aim to define awareness nutritional issues among healthcare professionals delivering anticancer care. The questionnaire was...
The objective of the paper was to assess real-life experience in management head and neck cancer (HNC) patients during COVID-19 pandemic radiotherapy departments evaluate variability terms adherence American Society Radiation Oncology (ASTRO) European for Radiotherapy (ESTRO) recommendations. In May 2020, an anonymous 30-question online survey, comparing acute phase outbreak pre-COVID-19 period, conducted. Two sections exploited changes general HNC different primary tumors, addressing...
Abstract Purpose Radical resection (R0) represents the best curative treatment for local recurrence (LR) rectal cancer. Re-irradiation (re-RT) can increase rate of R0 resection. Currently, there is a lack guidelines on Re-RT LR The Italian Association Radiation and clinical oncology gastrointestinal tumors (AIRO-GI) study group released national survey to investigate current practice external beam radiation therapy in these patients. Material methods In February 2021, was designed...
Background/Aim: The aim of the study was to investigate boost volume definition, doses, and delivery techniques for rectal cancer dose intensification. Patients Methods: An online survey made on 25 items (characteristics, simulation, imaging, volumes, planning treatment). Results: Thirty-eight radiation oncologists joined study. Twenty-one delivered long-course radiotherapy with Boost delineated diagnostic magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in 18 centres (85.7%), computed tomography (CT)...
A multi-institutional retrospective study was conducted to evaluate the pattern of care and clinical outcomes anal cancer patients treated with intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) techniques. In a cohort 987 patients, complete response (CR) rate (beyond 6 months) 90.6%. The 3-year local control (LC) 85.8% (95% CI: 84.4–87.2), colostomy-free survival (CFS) 77.9% 76.1–79.8). Three-year progression-free (PFS) overall (OS) rates were 80.2% 88.1% 78.8–89.4) 78.5–81.9), respectively....
