Article Synopsis
  • Large-scale trials suggest that hypofractionated adjuvant breast radiotherapy is as effective as conventional methods, with reduced acute toxicity, but data on toxicity with regional nodal irradiation (RNI) is limited.
  • A multicenter study assessed radiation-related acute skin toxicity in 1,727 patients receiving RNI alongside whole-breast or chest wall irradiation, revealing that those receiving hypofractionated therapy had a lower incidence of acute dermatitis (28.4%) compared to conventional therapy.
  • The study confirmed previous findings of decreased dermatitis risk with hypofractionated therapy and emphasized the need for more extensive data collection to understand the long-term impacts of radiation fractionation.

Pemphigus is a serious and rare chronic bullous autoimmune disease. It is characterized by mucocutaneous erosions secondary to autoantibodies directed against desmogleins 1 and 3, proteins involved in intercellular adhesion mechanisms. The occurrence of pemphigus is based on the triggering of genetic and external environmental factors such as drugs, infection, and more rarely radiotherapy.

Background/aim: Anaplastic thyroid carcinoma (ATC) is the least common but most lethal of thyroid cancer, despite various therapeutic options, with limited efficacy. In order to help therapeutic decision-making, the purpose of this study was to develop a new prognostic score providing survival estimates in patients with ATC.

Patients And Methods: Based on a multivariate analysis of 149 retrospectively analyzed patients diagnosed with ATC from 1968 to 2017 at a referral center, a propensity score was developed.
