Radiation Proctitis in Patients With Locally Advanced Cervical Cancer Treated by Chemoradiation: Analysis and Predictive Factors From a Retrospective Cohort.

Objectives: Radiation proctitis is a misunderstanding complication of chemoradiation in locally advanced cervical cancer. The objective of our study is to provide a detailed description and analysis of predictive factors associated with radiation proctitis in a retrospective cohort of patients treated by chemoradiation for locally advanced cervical cancer.

Methods: All patients treated by exclusive chemoradiation or chemoradiation followed by brachytherapy for locally advanced cervical cancer from 2011 to 2017 were included in the study.

Large scale experience of two ultrahypofractionated 5 fractions regimes after breast conserving surgery from a single centre.

Purpose: Ultra-hypofractionation breast radiotherapy is a safe alternative to moderate hypofractionation. This study reports the results of two ultrahypofractionated regimens used in clinical practice in a high-volume radiotherapy center in terms of efficacy and of tolerance.

Methods: we included all patients treated in an adjuvant setting with five fractions after breast conserving surgery (BCS), for a histologically-confirmed invasive or breast carcinoma.

[Radiotherapy of rare head and neck tumors].

Management of head and neck tumors is complex because of multiple anatomical locations and histologies possibilities. Rare tumors must be managed in a specialized center and be registered in the French network of expertise on ENT Cancers (Refcor). Despite heterogeneous levels of evidence, radiotherapy plays an essential role in their treatment.

Radiotherapy in the management of synchronous metastatic lung cancer.

Metastatic lung cancer classically portends a poor prognosis. The management of metastatic lung cancer has dramatically changed with the emergence of immune checkpoint inhibitors, targeted therapy and due to a better understanding of the oligometastatic process. In metastatic lung cancers, radiation therapy which was only used with palliative intent for decades, represents today a promising way to treat primary and oligometastatic sites with a curative intent.
