Unlabelled: For the last three decades, the world surgical community successfully adopted different surgical strategies for colorectal cancer (CRC) patients with liver metastases (LM), however, we are still seeing the evolution of treatment guidelines. The purpose of the study was to analyze a 20-year evolution of CRC patients with LM being treated in a specialized state Ukrainian oncological center.
Materials And Methods: The retrospective analysis of 1118 CRC patient cases using prospectively collected patient data from the National Cancer Institute registry.
Objective: This study aimed to determine whether texture parameters could be used in differentiation between the tumor and the peritumoral tissues based on hybrid 18F-Fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography imaging for patients with rectal cancer.
Methods: Seven parameters, including heterogeneity, entropy, energy, skewness, kurtosis, standard deviation, and average brightness, were extracted from positron emission tomography/computed tomography scans of 22 patients (12 male and 10 female; mean age, 61 ± 2 years).
Results: The peritumoral tissue had a significantly lower value of the heterogeneity parameter (23%) than the tumor.
Purpose: To evaluate the efficacy of neoadjuvant chemotherapy in combination with regional inductive moderate hyperthermia for patients with locally advanced breast cancer.
Patients And Methods: 200 patients with stage IIB-IIIA breast cancer received neoadjuvant chemotherapy (control group, n = 97) or chemotherapy combined with hyperthermia (experimental group, n = 103). Inductive hyperthermia was set at 27.
