Cancer/Radiothérapie
Many histological types of skin cancers may be treated with radiation. In most cases, there are no randomised trials enabling to well define the place of radiotherapy nor the best dose-fractionation schedules. Radiation indications are based at best on large retrospective series and sometimes only on expert opinions.

Adjuvant therapy for rectal cancer has undergone significant modifications over the past 30 years, including the addition of radiation therapy, significant improvements in surgical technique, and the administration of systemic therapy. Historically, curative resection commonly required an abdominoperineal resection and permanent colostomy.

Radiotherapy and rectal cancer
Cancer, 1977Studies utilizing preoperative radiotherapy as an adjunct to surgery are reviewed, with results indicating marked increase in survival. Results of postoperative irradiation also appear beneficial, although less extensive data are available. Irradiation for inoperable and recurrent rectal cancer has demonstrated symptomatic relief, particularly ...

Radiotherapy for gynecologic cancer
Current Opinion in Oncology, 1993The past year has not seen any breakthroughs in radiation treatment of gynecologic cancer. In reference to cervix cancer, important contributions concerning side effects and the role of radiosensitizers were published. The lack of randomized trials dealing with adjuvant radiotherapy is obvious.

Radiotherapy of Cervical Cancer
Oncology Research and Treatment, 2016Curative-intent radical radiotherapy of cervical cancer consists of external-beam radiotherapy, brachytherapy, and concomitant chemotherapy with cisplatin. For each element, new developments aim to improve tumor control rates or treatment tolerance. Intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) has been shown to reduce gastrointestinal toxicity and can be ...

Radiotherapy and cervical cancer
International Journal of Radiation Oncology*Biology*Physics, 1985The radiotherapy of cervical cancer has traditionally been based on intracavitary irradiation. Although there was a brief flirtation with external irradiation alone in the 1960’s, the fundamental importance of brachytherapy is supported by the findings of the Patterns of Care Study of the American College of Radiology.

British Medical Bulletin, 2002
Radiotherapy has an established role in the treatment of rectal cancer. In primary resectable cancer, numerous randomised trials have shown that particularly pre-operative, and to some extent also postoperative, radiotherapy substantially reduces the risk of local failure. This is seen also with total mesorectal excision.

Complications of Breast-cancer Radiotherapy
Clinical Oncology, 2006Although the beneficial effect of postoperative radiotherapy for breast cancer is well documented, this treatment may be related to a number of complications, which may affect patient quality of life and possibly survival. Among significant long-term irradiation sequelae are cardiac and lung damage, lymphoedema, brachial plexopathy, impaired shoulder ...

RADIOTHERAPY OF EARLY GLOTTIC CANCER
The Laryngoscope, 1980AbstractPatients (383) with stage Tis, Tla and Tlb NoMo glottic cancer are reviewed. Radiotherapy cured 93% of Tis patients and 86% of Tla and Tlb cases. Of all recurrences, 63% were cured. No patient with stage Tis died as a result of tumor and only 5% of stage Tla and Tlb died from tumor. Involvement of the anterior commissure or both vocal cords did

Cancer/Radiothérapie
Radiotherapy, long established as a cornerstone of cancer care, has in recent years broadened its therapeutic reach to include a variety of benign and functional disorders. Advances in imaging, motion management, and highly conformal delivery have made it possible to treat non-malignant conditions with precision and minimal collateral damage.
