Abstract Purpose Children with rhabdomyosarcoma(RMS)of the bladder/prostate can be treated by radical or organ sparing surgery both in combination with chemotherapy ± radiation therapy. In this retrospective study we analyzed the outcome with special attention to radical surgery and urinary diversion (UD). Material and Methods 24/32 patients with RMS of the genitourinary tract had RMS of the bladder (n=14) or prostate (n=10). 8 patients were stage II, 11 stage III and 5 stage IV. In 18/24 with RMS of the bladder/prostate, radical surgery and urinary diversion was performed. 3 had chemotherapy only, 2 in combination with radiotherapy. One patient underwent partial cystectomy. For UD: uretero…
Minimally Invasive Approaches in Locally Advanced Cervical Cancer Patients Undergoing Radical Surgery After Chemoradiotherapy: A Propensity Score Ana…

Abstract Purpose Chemoradiation (CT/RT) followed by radical surgery (RS) may play a role in locally advanced cervical cancer (LACC) patients with suboptimal response to CT/RT or in low-income countries with limited access to radiotherapy. Our aim is to evaluate oncological and surgical outcomes of minimally invasive radical surgery (MI-RS) compared with open radical surgery (O-RS). Patients and Methods Data for stage IB2–IVA cervical cancer patients managed by CT/RT and RS were retrospectively analyzed. Results Beginning with 686 patients, propensity score matching resulted in 462 cases (231 per group), balanced for FIGO stage, lymph node status, histotype, tumor grade, and clinical respons…
