Carcinosarcoma of the Parotid With Osteosarcoma Component: A Case Report

open access: yesClinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Carcinosarcomas of the salivary gland with osteosarcoma component are very rare, with only 17 cases reported. Despite multiple poor prognostic factors, our patient's outcome was favorable, highlighting the importance of early diagnosis and aggressive treatment in improving prognosis for this aggressive tumor variant.

Fractionated Gamma Knife Radiation for Papillary Tumor of the Pineal Region: A Case Report and Literature Review

open access: yesClinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Papillary tumor of the pineal region (PTPR) is a rare central nervous system neoplasm with an unpredictable clinical course. Gross total resection, the preferred treatment, is often unachievable due to the tumor's deep‐seated location, necessitating alternative therapies.

Photobiomodulation and Radio‐Epithelitis in Anal Carcinoma: A Case‐Report and Clinical Reflection on Emerging Preventive and Supportive Care Modalities

open access: yesClinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Radio‐induced dermatitis, a frequent adverse effect of radiation therapy, is particularly prevalent in patients treated for anal margin carcinoma. It may present with varying severity, causing significant pain and impairment of daily mobility, influenced by both patient‐related factors and treatment regimens.

The prognostic value of cell‐free DNA dynamics during chemoradiotherapy in squamous cell carcinomas of the anus

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cancer, Volume 158, Issue 3, Page 790-798, 1 February 2026.
What's new? Chemoradiotherapy is the standard treatment for squamous cell carcinoma of the anus (SCCA). Toxicities linked to chemoradiotherapy, however, can negatively impact the quality of life, and biomarkers to distinguish which patients will benefit from treatment are lacking.

A tandem reinforcement learning framework for localized prostate cancer treatment planning and machine parameter optimization

open access: yesMedical Physics, Volume 53, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract Background Volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT) machine parameter optimization (MPO) is a complex, high‐dimensional problem typically solved with inverse planning solutions that are both temporally and computationally expensive. While machine learning techniques have been explored to automate this process, they often supplement rather than ...
