A patient presented with a 5-year history of slowly progressive dysphagia. He had moderately differentiated squamous cell carcinoma in the middle thoracic esophagus and underwent partial esophagogastrostomy 16 years prior. The patient with postoperative anastomotic stenoses was treated with radiotherapy at a total dose of 60 Gy after esophagectomy. Endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) was used to treat the recurrent tumor.Clinical specimens were obtained from the ESD and the tumor was pathologically confirmed to be fibrosarcoma.

The risk of radiotherapy-induced malignancies (RIMs) is a concern when treating Li-Fraumeni syndrome (LFS) or Li-Fraumeni Like (LFL) patients. However, the type of TP53 pathogenic germline variant may possibly influence this risk. TP53 p.

Background: The development of a secondary malignancy in the field of radiation is a rare but well-recognized hazard of cancer treatment. The radiotherapy-induced (RT-I) tumors are even more aggressive and potentially lethal than the primary tumor. To goal of this article is to report a case of RT-I neural tumor located in the peripheral nerve and spinal cord and to perform a literature review of the subject.

This review gives an overview of radiotherapy-induced malignant skin tumors as described in the present medical literature. Basal cell carcinomas are the most frequent post-radiation malignant skin tumors; however, specific incidence ratios are few and show ratios of 2%. Squamous cell carcinomas are briefly discussed, followed by post-radiation sarcomas.

A multispectral (MS) approach that combines apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) and T(2) parameter maps with k-means (KM) clustering was employed to distinguish multiple compartments within viable tumor tissue (V1 and V2) and necrosis (N1 and N2) following single-dose (1000 cGy) radiotherapy in a radiation-induced fibrosarcoma (RIF-1) tumor model. The contributions of cell kill and tumor growth kinetics to the radiotherapy-induced response were investigated. A larger pretreatment V1 volume was correlated with decreased tumor growth delay (TGD) (r = 0.
