[Five-fraction radiotherapy for breast cancer].

Extreme hypofractionation in adjuvant breast radiotherapy currently generates a lot of interest. We propose here a synthesis of hypofractionation trials and present the DESTHE COL and DESTHE GR projects, encouraged by the French National Cancer Institute (INCa), which experiment care pathways in order to deploy effective strategies to de-escalate the therapeutics and to reduce sequelae after cancer treatment.

[Braindrive: Who can drive among patients undergoing brain radiation therapy?].

Purpose: Brain tumors can be associated with various neurological symptoms impairing driving ability. We sought to assess patients' knowledge on the French driving legislation.

Materials And Methods: This is a prospective descriptive epidemiological study carried out at the Oscar Lambret center in Lille, among driving license holders treated by radiotherapy for one or more primary cerebral tumor or brain metastasis.

[Dosimetric factors related to postoperative pulmonary complications in locally advanced esophageal cancers treated with preoperative chemoradiotherapy: Literature review].

Introduction: Preoperative chemoradiotherapy is an option for locally advanced esophageal cancer. Radiation therapy may increase postoperative pulmonary complications. Usual lungs dose constraints in radiotherapy are old and used by extrapolation of lung cancer management.
