Purpose: To explore the efficacy of CT-guided iodine-125 (I) radioactive particle implantation for the treatment of pelvic local recurrence of cervical cancer after radiotherapy.

Material And Methods: To analyze clinical data of 46 patients with pelvic local recurrence of cervical cancer after radiotherapy, who underwent I particle implantation, post-operative follow-up using Kaplan-Meier method to calculate the rate of local control, and observation of complications. Univariate and multi-factorial analyses were performed with log-rank test and Cox regression statistical method to observe changes in serum SCC-Ag and CEA levels.

Article Synopsis
  • The study assesses the effectiveness of 1 seed implantation for treating lymph node metastasis in patients with refractory differentiated thyroid cancer (RAIR-DTC) among 42 cases observed from January 2015 to June 2016.
  • Results indicated a significant reduction in lymph node size post-treatment, with an overall effective rate of 95.24%, and serum thyroglobulin (Tg) levels also decreased notably over time.
  • The findings suggest that while the treatment effectively alleviated clinical symptoms and reduced the size of lymph node metastases, factors like age, gender, and number of implanted seeds did not significantly influence treatment outcomes.

Purpose: To investigate the clinical efficacy of percutaneous transhepatic cholangial drainage (PTCD) combined with intra-tumoral iodine-125 (I) particle implantation and chemotherapy in the treatment of locally advanced pancreatic head cancer (LAPHC) with obstructive jaundice.

Material And Methods: Twenty-one patients with LAPHC with obstructive jaundice were selected, and routine examination before surgery to determine location of obstruction and degree of bile duct dilatation was performed. All 21 patients underwent PTCD first, and usual examinations, including liver and kidney function, were re-examined after operation.
