Adjuvant radiotherapy in urothelial neuroendocrine carcinoma

Minerva Chirurgica, 2020
Neuroendocrine carcinoma cases, more frequent in the gastro-intestinal and pulmonary tract, have rarely been reported also in other areas, including the genito-urinary system. The majority of genitourinary neuroendocrine carcinomas occur in the bladder, being upper urinary tract neuroendocrine carcinoma rare.

Chemotherapy as an Adjuvant to Radiotherapy

1967
The rationale of combining a chemotherapeutic agent with radiation therapy can be on one of two hypotheses: 1. Agents like 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) or 5-bromodeoxyuridine (5-BUdR) have been shown to be radiation sensitizers (Bagshaw, 1961; Berry and Andrews, 1962; Bosch et al., 1958; Djordjevic and Szybalski, 1960, Kaplan et al., 1961, 1962 ...

INDICATIONS FOR ADJUVANT RADIOTHERAPY IN ENDOMETRIAL CARCINOMA

Hematology/Oncology Clinics of North America, 1999
This article examines the impact of prognostic factors, adjuvant therapy, and randomized trials on the overall survival of patients with endometrial cancer. The potential role of radiation therapy as an adjuvant therapy, as well as the role of lymph node dissection, in the treatment of endometrial carcinomas is reviewed.

The Potential for Adjuvant Radiotherapy in Choroidal Melanoma

Archives of Ophthalmology, 1982
Controversy exists regarding the efficacy of enucleation in the management of choroidal melanoma. The effect of any form of ocular therapy on the prevalence of choroidal melanoma metastases is unknown. In a number of other systemic tumors, preoperative irradiation may lessen the occurrence of widespread disease.

Melatonin as an adjuvant in radiotherapy for radioprotection and radiosensitization

Clinical and Translational Oncology, 2018
It is estimated that more than half of cancer patients undergo radiotherapy during the course of their treatment. Despite its beneficial therapeutic effects on tumor cells, exposure to high doses of ionizing radiation (IR) is associated with several side effects.

Long-Term Costs of Adjuvant Radiotherapy

1982
Before discussing long-term costs it is worthwhile to define adjuvant radiotherapy. We cannot surely define as adjuvant the irradiation that follows a nonradical operation, because such treatment is compulsory and long-term costs are the price of recovery. We cannot talk about adjuvant treatment also after radical but limited surgery, such as a partial
