Article Synopsis
- Penile cancer (PC) is a severe form of cancer without reliable prognostic indicators, and this study explores how changes in squamous cell carcinoma antigen (SCC-A) levels relate to patient outcomes following TIP chemotherapy.
- The research analyzed 80 patients with advanced PC, identifying two patterns of SCC-A levels: a low-stable group and a high-decline group, with the latter showing significantly poorer survival and tumor response outcomes.
- The findings suggest that monitoring SCC-A levels could be useful in assessing treatment effectiveness and patient prognosis after chemotherapy.
Background: Indocyanine green (ICG) clearance test is a classical measurement of hepatic reserve, which involves surgical safety and patient recovery of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). The authors aim to compare effects of hepatic arterial infusion chemotherapy (HAIC) and transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE) on liver function and outcomes of subsequent hepatectomy.
Material And Methods: HCC patients receiving HAIC/TACE in SYSUCC with repeated ICG clearance tests were retrospectively enrolled.
