Malignant PEComas are an extremely rare subtype of soft tissue sarcomas. Here, we report the case of a man presenting with a perirectal PEComa and liver metastasis. Since the tumor harbored a tumor mutational burden of 23/Mb and a programmed death-ligand 1 tumor positivity score of 50%, the patient was treated with pembrolizumab as a second line of systemic therapy, in combination with everolimus.

Purpose: To investigate the efficacy and long-term side effects of hypofractionated postmastectomy radiation therapy (HFRT-PM) of 26 Gy in 6 fractions over 5 weeks.

Methods And Materials: We retrospectively reviewed characteristics and outcomes of patients with stage I to III breast cancer treated with HFRT-PM between 2000 and 2009. Treatment provided 4 fractions of 4 Gy (days 1, 3, 15, 17) and then 2 fractions of 5 Gy (days 29 and 31) over 5 weeks.

Purpose: Hypofractionated stereotactic radiotherapy (HFSRT) has become a standard of care for patients with a limited number of brain metastases (BM). An increasing number of linear accelerators (LA) are able to accurately perform HFSRT including VersaHD® (Elekta®) LA. The main aim of this study was to report clinical outcomes of BM treated by HFSRT using 3×7.
