Background
Pediatric non‐rhabdomyosarcoma soft‐tissue sarcomas (NRSTS) are a heterogeneous group of aggressive tumors. Patients with locally advanced/initially unresected disease represent a subset of patients with unsatisfactory outcome: limited data are available on the best treatment approach, in particular regarding local therapy.
Methods
This retrospective analysis concerned 71 patients < 21...
Introduction
Adult prostatic sarcoma (PS) is a rare disease. While surgery is considered the standard approach, the role of other therapies is not completely established. We report results of the largest multicentric contemporary cohort of PS patients.
Materials and Methods
This study included 61 adult PS patients treated in 16 American and European Institutions. Median age was 64.4 years (range:...
Nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) is one of the most interesting cancers with a distinctly skewed distribution. The aetiology is multifactorial (genetic predisposition, Epstein‐Barr virus infection and environmental carcinogens). The most significant prognostic factors include TNM staging, tumour volume, EBV‐DNA copies, age and gender. Radiotherapy is the primary treatment modality, with the intensity‐modulated...
BACKGROUND:It is largely unknown to what extent new oncologic treatment options have improved survival of patients with brain metastasis in recent decades. Therefore, a multi‐institutional time‐staggered analysis was performed.
METHODS:Two cohorts of 103 patients each were analyzed, one treated between 2005 and 2009 and the other between 1983 and 1989, ie, approximately 20 years earlier. Stratified...
