Paget's disease of scrotum and penis case report of a re-irradiation and review of the literature.
Extramammary Paget's disease (EMPD) is a rare cutaneous adenocarcinoma generally arising in the anogenital region. Surgery is still considered the treatment of choice for patients with EMPD, while Radiotherapy is a common alternative for inoperable cases and it's necessary in case of lack of surgical radicality. In this article, we described our experience and a review of the literature, with a particular focus on radiation-induced toxicity and on the feasibility of re-irradiation. A 70-year-old patient with EPMD underwent adjuvant radiotherapy in 2015. After 28 months for recurrence another radiant treatment was performed. No G3 (CTCAE v4) toxicity were recorded. In the last follow-up visi…
Stereotactic Radiotherapy in Early-Stage Breast Cancer in Neoadjuvant and Exclusive Settings: A Systematic Review
<b><i>Introduction:</i></b> Breast cancer (BC) is one of the most common tumors; better screening policies and multidisciplinary approach allow personalized treatment. Radiotherapy (RT) plays a central role in the multimodal approach in BC, and recent evidence has shown the non-inferiority of hypofractionated treatments. The aim of this study was to describe the feasibility and validity of stereotactic RT (SBRT) in BC in a neoadjuvant and exclusive setting. <b><i>Methods:</i></b> A PubMed/MEDLINE and Embase systematic review was conducted to assess the role of radiomics in BC. The search strategy was “breast [All Fields] AND “stereotactic” [Al…
