A subgroup of obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) patients remains refractory to conventional treatments. For them, a new stereotactic radiosurgery has been recently developed: the ventral capsular/ventral striatal (VC/VS) gamma capsulotomy. The authors aim report efficacy and adverse events VC/VS Five OCD were selected. assessed OCD, anxiety depressive symptoms, side effects pre- postoperatively. Three (60%) met response criteria 48 months after surgery. Adverse episodic transient. Ventral...
To evaluate the prognostic factors associated with overall survival in patients brain metastasis treated whole radiotherapy (WBRT) and estimate potential improvement for metastases, stratified by Radiation Therapy Oncology Group (RTOG) recursive partitioning analysis (RPA) class.From January 1996 to December 2000, 270 medical records of diagnosis metastasis, who received WBRT Hospital do Cancer Sao Paulo A.C. Camargo period, were analyzed. The surgery followed was used 15% 85% others...
Brain metastases (BM) are the most common form of intracranial cancer. The incidence BM seems to have increased over past decade. Recursive partitioning analysis (RPA) data from three Radiation Therapy Oncology Group (RTOG) trials (1200 patients) has allowed prognostic groups be identified. More recently a simplified stratification system that uses evaluation main prognostics factors for radiosurgery in was developed. To analyze overall survival rate (OS), affecting outcomes and estimate...
Abstract Agnogenic myeloid metaplasia is a hematologic disorder accompanied by extramedullary hematopoiesis (EMH) affecting various organs. Lung involvement however rare. We present the case of 76‐year‐old woman with myelofibrosis, recurrent pleural effusions, pulmonary hypertension, and serious right cardiac failure. An open lung biopsy confirmed EMH. She underwent low‐dose (200 cGy) whole‐lung radiotherapy in 4 fractions 50 cGy each. Her clinical hemodynamic parameters improved. conclude...
Late urinary retention (UR) is a known complication that may occur when using high dose rate brachytherapy (HDR-B) to boost external beam radiation therapy (EBRT) treating prostate cancer. However, the dosimetric, treatment and clinical factors associated with this are not well-known.From March 1997 2000 total of 108 patients local or locally advanced adenocarcinoma were treated EBRT (45 Gy) HDR-B as boost, 16 20 Gy was given in 4 fractions twice daily. Median patient age 68 years median...
OBJECTIVE The role of tractography in Gamma Knife thalamotomy (GK-T) planning is still unclear. Pyramidal might reduce the risk radiation injury to pyramidal tract and motor complications. METHODS In this study, ventralis intermedius nucleus (VIM) targets 20 patients were bilaterally defined using Iplannet Stereotaxy Software, according anterior commissure–posterior commissure ( AC-PC) line considering localization tract. 40 transferred as objects GammaPlan Treatment Planning System...
To report the impact of COVID-19 pandemic on patient attendance at a radiotherapy department two months after implementation specific policies regarding pandemic. The proposed treatment schemes, favoring hypofractionated schedules, and management strategies irradiation are presented. Attendance these was measured compared with that during same period in 2019. A 10% reduction number treated patients 26% sessions observed. main decrease benign diseases gastrointestinal tumors, general increase...
Salvage therapy in head and neck cancer (HNC) is a controversy issue the literature scarce regarding use of interstitial high-dose rate brachytherapy (I-HDR) HNC. We evaluated long-term results treatment policy combining salvage surgery I-HDR for cervical recurrences Charts 21 patients treated from 1994 to 2004 were reviewed. The crude local control all was 52.4%. 5- 8-years overall (OS) relapse-free survival (LRFS) rates 50%, 42.9%, 42.5% 28.6%, respectively. only predictive factor...
