The restricted radiation tolerance of the anterior visual pathways represents a unique challenge for ablating adjacent lesions with single-session radiosurgery. Although preliminary studies have recently demonstrated that multisession radiosurgery selected perioptic tumors is both safe and effective, number patients in these clinical series was modest length follow-up limited. current retrospective study intended to help address shortcomings.Forty-nine consecutive meningioma (n = 27),...
To evaluate the efficacy of CyberKnife (Accuray, Inc., Sunnyvale, CA) stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) for patients with brain metastases malignant melanoma and renal cell carcinoma.We conducted a retrospective review all treated by image-guided at our institution between March 1999 December 2005. Sixty-two 145 carcinoma or were identified.The median follow-up period was 10.5 months. Forty-four had melanoma, 18 carcinoma. The age 57 years, classified as recursive partitioning analysis Class 1...
Introduction. Use of complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) in cancer patients is increasingly acceptable worldwide, but most the studies were surveyed from developed countries. In this study, we evaluated first large cohort with CAM use Thailand. Materials Methods. A self-administered questionnaire was completed by 248 attending outpatient radiotherapy unit at Ramathibodi Hospital. Results. The prevalence 60.9%. frequently used dietary/vitamin supplements (56.9%). Independent...
Stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) and fractionated stereotactic radiotherapy (SRT) have been recognized as an alternative to surgery for small medium sized vestibular schwannoma (VS). This study analysed compared the outcomes of VS treated with first Thailand installation a dedicated Linac-based radiation machine using single-fraction (SRS), hypofraction (HSRT) conventional fraction (CSRT). From 1997 2010, total 139 consecutive patients 146 lesions were X-Knife at Ramathibodi hospital,...
Background: Aloe vera has been widely used to treat various conditions such as sunburn or radiation-related dermatitis, mucositis, esophagitis. It is suggested that may be benefit for radiation-induced mucositis. Objective: To evaluate the efficacy of oral aloe juice in alleviation radiation induced mucositis head and neck cancer patients using a double-blind, randomized controlled trial. Methods materials: Sixty-one eligible patients, who received conventional therapy at Ramathibodi...
Stereotactic radiation technique including single fraction radiosurgery and conventional fractionated stereotactic radiotherapy is widely reported as an effective treatment of pituitary adenomas. Because the restricted tolerance dose optic pathway, has been accepted for small tumor located far away from apparatus, while may be suitable larger close to pathway. More recently, hypofractionated become alternative option that provides high rate control visual preservation perioptic lesions...

In recent years the use of stereotactic radiation for vestibular schwannomas has increased worldwide. However, malignant transformation associated with radiation, although uncommon, been reported in publications. We present a case 34 year-old female who had left schwannoma and underwent surgery postoperative radiotherapy (SRT), hypofraction 2005. At 6 after SRT, patient came facial palsy severe headache. CT brain revealed progression size cystic hemorrhagic changes preexisting tumor at CPA...
Recent publications have reported stereotactic radiosurgery as an effective and safe treatment for intracranial hemangioblastomas. However, because of the low incidence these particular tumors, reports on large patient number studies not yet been available. The objective this study was to analyze clinical results 14 patients with 56 hemangioblastomas treated linear accelerator (linac)-based (SRS) radiotherapy (SRT) in same institute. median age 41 years (range, 28–73 years). Nine (64%) had...
The study analyzed the long term clinical outcomes of pituitary adenoma cases treated with first Thailand installation a dedicated Linac-based stereotactic radiation machine (X-Knife).A retrospective review 115 consecutive patients X-Knife at Faculty Medicine, Ramathibodi Hospital, Bangkok, from 1997 to 2003 was performed. Stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) selected for 21 (18%) including those small tumors (≤3 cm) located ≥5 mm. optic apparatus, whereas remaining 94 (82%) were fractionated...
The aim of this study was to evaluate results fractionated stereotactic radiotherapy (FSRT) in patients with residual or recurrent nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) terms local progression-free (LPFS) and overall survival (OS) rate complications after treatment. There were 32 NPC treated FSRT using linac-based radiosurgery system. Time from the previous 1-165 months (median, 15). Two for second one third recurrence. Thirteen (40.6%) also received chemotherapy FSRT. Tumor volume ranged 6.2-215...
Induction chemotherapy with carboplatin followed by radiotherapy has been used for many years treating intracranial germ-cell tumors (IC-GCTs) in Thailand. The objective of this study was to assess treatment outcomes, focusing on survival and ototoxicity.The outcomes all patients IC-GCT treated at Ramathibodi Hospital the Prasat Neurological Institute between 2000 2017 were reviewed analyzed, including patient characteristics modalities. Five-year overall (OS) event-free (EFS) analyzed using...
The study aimed to evaluate the long-term clinical outcomes of patients with vestibular schwannoma (VS) treated stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) and hypofractionated radiotherapy (HSRT) frameless robotic whole-body system (CyberKnife® ).This retrospective analysis prospectively collected data included 123 consecutive VS at Radiosurgery center, Ramathibodi Hospital, Bangkok, Thailand. SRS was recommended for unserviceable hearing Koos grade I-III tumors, HSRT serviceable or III-IV tumors....
To evaluate long-term visual function after fractionated stereotactic radiotherapy (FSRT) for primary optic nerve sheath meningioma (PONSM).This 22-year retrospective study included 34 subjects (34 affected eyes) with PONSM who were treated FSRT exclusively. Subjects a history of biopsy/resection excluded. Visual function, including acuity (VA) and field mean deviation (VF MD), was evaluated at presentation (pre-radiotherapy; pre-RT) the final follow-up (post-radiotherapy; post-RT);...
Background and rationale: Stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) is a highly precise localized high-dose per fraction radiation treatment used mainly in lung cancer. Despite SBRT's increasing use, no clear predictive factors of outcome exist. Objectives: To report local control rates, patterns failure, incidence treatment-related toxicity, to determine predicting SBRT outcomes for primary secondary tumors at Ramathibodi Hospital using competing risk analysis. Materials methods: This...
