Gamma Knife radiosurgery for the treatment of trigeminal neuralgia: A single center-experience.

Introduction And Objectives: We aimed to assess the outcomes of patients with trigeminal neuralgia (TGN) who underwent Gamma Knife radiosurgery (GKRS).

Materials And Methods: Fifty-three patients with typical TGN underwent GKRS from May 2012 until December 2022. Among these patients, 45 patients who were follow-up for at least 12 months were included in the study.

Radiotherapy for benign diseases in Turkey: a patterns of care survey of the Turkish Society for Radiation Oncology (TROD 05-002).

Purpose: We aimed to investigate the patterns of radiotherapy (RT) care in cases of benign diseases in Turkey.

Methods: A questionnaire survey was sent to all radiation oncology (RO) departments in Turkey. The number of patients treated for benign disease between 2015 and 2020 was requested.

A multicenter retrospective analysis of patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma treated in IMRT era from a nonendemic population: Turkish Society for Radiation Oncology Head and Neck Cancer Group Study (TROD 01-001).

Background: We aimed to evaluate patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) in a nonendemic population.

Methods: In a national, retrospective, multicenteric study, 563 patients treated with intensity modulated radiotherapy at 22 centers between 2015 and 2020 were analyzed.

Results: Median age was 48 (9-83), age distribution was bimodal, 74.

Ductal prostate cancer: Clinical features and outcomes from a multicenter retrospective analysis and overview of the current literature.

Objective: The aim of the study is to evaluate clinical features and outcomes after different therapeutic strategies for ductal prostate adenocarcinoma (DPC), a rare but aggressive subtype of invasive prostate cancer (PCa) accounting for, in the pure and mixed form, 1% or less and 5% or less, respectively, of all the newly diagnosed PCa.

Materials And Methods: Patients with a proven diagnosis of DPC undergoing surgery, radiotherapy, and androgen deprivation therapy, alone or in combination, were considered for this multicenter, retrospective study. The study assessed overall survival (OS), disease-free survival (DFS), and age-related disease-specific survival.

Evaluation of Nutritional Status and Anxiety Levels in Patients Applying to the Radiation Oncology Outpatient Clinic during the COVID-19 Pandemic: Turkish Society for Radiation Oncology Group Study (TROD 12:02).

Cancer patients often face malnutrition, which negatively affects their response to cancer treatment. This study aims to analyze the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on nutritional status and anxiety in cancer patients with different types and stages of cancer. This is a cross-sectional cohort study that includes 1,252 patients with varying cancer types from 17 radiation oncology centers.
