The Role of Radiotherapy in Indolent Ocular Adnexal and Orbital Lymphomas.

Background: This study evaluates the oncological outcomes and toxicities of indolent ocular adnexal and orbital lymphomas (OOLs) treated with radiotherapy (RT) ± systemic therapy.

Methods: A retrospective analysis of 44 patients with indolent OOLs treated with RT was conducted.

Results: Most patients (87%) had early-stage disease.

The role of radiotherapy in multimodal treatment of non-rhabdomyosarcoma soft tissue sarcomas in children: A real life report from a tertiary center.

Objective: The current treatment of pediatric non-rhabdomyosarcoma soft tissue sarcomas (NRSTS) is a multimodal risk-based approach. Today, smaller fields and lower doses of radiotherapy (RT) have become standard. In this study, it was aimed to evaluate the treatment outcomes and toxicity profile in children with NRSTS that received RT as a part of multimodal therapy.

The effect of incidental dose to pelvic nodes in bladder-only irradiation in the era of IMRT: a dosimetric study.

Purpose: While three-dimensional radiotherapy (RT) causes high incidental nodal doses in bladder-only irradiation for muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC), the impact on pelvic lymphatics is unclear in the era of intensity-modulated RT (IMRT). This study evaluates incidental doses to pelvic lymphatics in MIBC patients treated with IMRT.

Methods: The data of 40 MIBC patients treated with bladder-only IMRT and concurrent chemotherapy were retrospectively evaluated.

Stereotactic radiotherapy for head and neck paragangliomas: How long should we wait for treatment response?

Background And Purpose: Stereotactic radiotherapy (SRT) is an effective treatment for head & neck (H&N) paragangliomas. Nevertheless, the timeline for achieving a tumor-volume-reduction (TVR) remains unclear.

Materials And Methods: Sixty-three cases with H&N paragangliomas received definitive SRT and were evaluated retrospectively.

Hypofractionated stereotactic re-irradiation for progressive glioblastoma: twelve years' experience of a single center.

Purpose: We aimed to evaluate the prognostic factors and the role of stereotactic radiotherapy (SRT) as a re-irradiation technique in the management of progressive glioblastoma.

Methods: The records of 77 previously irradiated glioblastoma patients who progressed and received second course hypofractionated SRT (1-5 fractions) between 2009 and 2022 in our department were evaluated retrospectively. Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) version 23.

Simultaneous integrated or sequential boost to clinically involved lymph nodes in patients with locally advanced cervical cancer treated with definitive chemoradiotherapy.

Objective: The optimal treatment of metastatic lymph nodes (LNs) in locally-advanced cervical cancer (LACC) is controversial. With the widespread use of modern radiotherapy (RT) techniques, it is become possible to perform dose escalation in clinically involved LNs. This study aimed to evaluate the oncologic outcomes of dose escalation to the involved LNs with the simultaneous-integrated (SIB) or sequential boost (SEB) techniques as a part of definitive chemoradiotherapy (CRT) for patients with LACC.

Radiotherapy for pediatric non-rhabdomyosarcoma soft tissue sarcomas: a comprehensive review.

Background: For children with non-rhabdomyosarcoma soft tissue sarcomas, a risk-adapted treatment approach is generally used in order to minimize treatment-related morbidity and mortality in low-risk patients and maximize the benefit in high-risk patients. Our aim in this review is to discuss the prognostic factors, riskadapted treatment options and the details of radiotherapy.

Methods: The publications reached by searching the keywords `pediatric soft tissue sarcoma`, `nonrhabdomyosarcoma soft tissue sarcoma (NRSTS)`, and `radiotherapy` in Pubmed database were evaluated in detail.

Stereotactic Body Radiotherapy as an Effective Treatment for Pancreatic Cancer.

Background Stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) allows the delivery of an ablative radiation dose to the tumor with minimal toxicity. Although magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-guided SBRT appears to be a promising approach in the modern era, X-ray image-guided SBRT is still used worldwide for pancreatic cancer. This study aims to evaluate the results of X-ray image-guided SBRT in patients with locally advanced pancreatic cancer (LAPC).

Evaluation of sarcopenia as a prognostic biomarker in locally advanced head and neck squamous cell carcinoma.

We aimed to evaluate the effect of sarcopenia on survival in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma patients treated with chemoradiotherapy. Disease-free survival and overall survival were compared according to cervical computed tomography for radiotherapy in 123 sarcopenic and non-sarcopenic patients with locally advanced head and neck squamous cell carcinoma treated with chemoradiotherapy with weekly cisplatin. In multivariate analyses, pretreatment sarcopenia was associated with lower disease-free survival (hazard ratio: 2.

Uterine papillary serous and clear cell carcinomas: Comparison of characteristics and clinical outcomes.

Introduction: To assess the rate of disease control and survival after adjuvant treatment in patients with uterine papillary serous (PSC) and clear cell carcinoma (CCC) and compare the results between these two subtypes.

Methods: The medical charts of 199 patients with de novo uterine PSC or CCC who underwent radiotherapy (RT) following surgery between 2001 and 2019 in three radiation oncology departments were retrospectively evaluated. Adjuvant treatment was decided by a multidisciplinary tumor board.
