Objective To study the curative effects of keloid by operation combined with postoperative β radiation and silicone gel sheeting. Methods From 1996 to 2002, 598 patients with keloid(243 males, 355 females, aging 15-55 years with an average of 28.6 years) were treated by integrated therapy. Their disease courses were from 6 months to 6 years. The keloid area ranged from 1.0 cm×1.5 cm~8.0 cm×15 cm. First, keloid was removed by operation, and then the wounds weresutured directly(group suture) or covered with skin graft(group graft). In groupsuture, the operational sites were managed by β ray radiotherapy 24-48 hours after operation. The total doses of radiation were 12-15 Gy, 5 times 1 week(group suture A) and 10 times 2 weeks (group suture B). Radiotherapy was not taken until stitches were taken out in group graft, and then the same methods were adopted as group suture B. After radiotherapy, silicone gel sheeting was used in 325 cases for 3-6 months. Results All patients were followed up for 12-18 months. (1) The overall efficacy was 91.3% in group suture A(n=196), and 95.8% in group suture B (n=383), respectively. There was significant difference between the two groups(Plt;0.01). (2) Radiotherapy was of no effect in 6 cases of group graft(n=19). (3) Silicone gel sheeting had effectivenessin 185 cases. Silicone gel sheeting had no obvious effect on the overall efficacy, but it could improve the quality of texture and color of skin. Conclusion By use of integrated methods to treat keloid, if the wound can be sutured directly, skin grafting should not be adopted. The results in group suture B are better than those in group suture A; silicone gel sheeting should be used as possible.
ObjectiveTo analyze the value of internal mammary lymph node biopsy via intercostal space in staging and adjuvant therapy of breast cancer. MethodsThe clinical data of 305 breast cancer patients received any kind of radical mastectomy from may 2003 to January 2014 in the Jinan Military General Hospital of PLA were analyzed retrospectively. The patient age, axillary lymph node, and internal mammary lymph node status were integrated to investigate the changing of staging and postoperative adjuvant therapy of the breast cancer. ResultsThese 305 patients were divided into neoadjuvant chemotherapy group and non-neoadjuvant therapy group. There were 67 patients in the neoadjuvant chemotherapy group, including 45(67.2%) patients with axillary lymph node positive, 23(34.3%) patients with internal mammary lymph node positive. There were 23(34.3%) patients who had a change of pathology lympy node (pN) staging and 8(11.9%) patients who had a change of the pTNM staging. Meanwhile, there were 238 patients in the non-neoadjuvant chemotherapy group, including 155(65.1%) patients with axillary lymph node positive, 30(12.6%) patients with internal mammary node positive. There were 30(12.6%) patients who had a change of the pN staging and 23(9.66%) patients who had a change of the pTNM staging. There was a significant difference in the metastasis rate of the internal mammary lymph node (χ2=15.7, P < 0.05) or the changing ratio of the pTNM staging (χ2=5.3, P < 0.05) in two groups. ConclusionsInternal mammary lymph node status could affect pN staging of breast cancer, so do the pTNM staging (TNM, pathology tumor, lymph node, metastasis). The internal mammary lymph node status could guide the postoperative adjuvant radiative therapy by reducing excessive treatment of the internal mammary lymph node area, also could enhance the individual accurate therapy.

Methods A total of 16 patients with primary retroperitoneal soft tissue sarcoma underwent high-dose three-dimensional conformal radiotherapy after sarcoma excision from October 1998 to April 2003. The biologically effective dose was 55-62 Gy for CTV. The local control rate and long-term survival rate and disease free survival after 2 and 5 years were observed. Results The local control rate obviously raised in these patients after 2 and 5 years; but the long-term survival rate didn’t improve and the disease free survival improved in these patients compared with those wasn’t radiated. Conclusion High-dose three-dinensional comfomal radiotherapy is effective on the patients with retroperitoneal soft tissue sarcoma in local control rate and disease free survival, but long-term survival rate is not improved and the side-effect is not serious.
Objective To study the development of internal radiotherapy for liver cancer and the relationship between effects and radiation doses. Methods Literature about internal radiotherapy of liver cancer were collected and reviewed. Results The rational selection of radioactive microsphere,the appropriate control of radiation dosage and the path of internal radiotherapy are crucial in improving the therapy effects and decreasing the complications. Conclusion The two-stage operation of liver cancer which is on the base of combining chemotherapy, radiotherapy and immunotherapy is the way to go of liver cancer therapy.
In this paper, a method for dose calculation with pencil beam kernels constructed by point kernel superposition was proposed to accelerate the dose calculation during intensity optimization iteration. With this method, the direct aperture optimization method can be integrated in the planning system based on point kernel convolution/superposition model. The dose calculation time was also reduced during the iteration. From the result of the phantom and clinical patient data test, it was concluded that this method could be used for the intensity optimization of iteration dose calculation as the satisfied precision due to the optimization result coherence obtained. By implementing the method in the planning system product based on point kernel convolution/superposition model, a lot of additional research and development works for the pencil beam dose calculation model as well as the product maintenance cost can be avoided.
ObjectiveTo investigate the effectiveness of internal mammary artery perforator (IMAP) propeller flap repair combined with radiotherapy for chest keloid in female patients.MethodsBetween January 2015 and December 2016, 15 female patients with chest keloids were treated, aged 28-75 years (mean, 45.2 years). The keloid disease duration was 1-28 years (median, 6 years). The causes of disease included secondary keloid caused by folliculitis in 7 cases, cardiac surgery in 4 cases, skin abrasion in 2 cases, mosquito bite in 1 case, and unknown etiology in 1 case. The size of keloid ranged from 5 cm×3 cm to 17 cm×6 cm. The IMAP propeller flaps were used to repair the defects after chest keloid excision. The size of flaps ranged from 7 cm×5 cm to 14 cm×8 cm. The donor sits were sutured directly. The routine radiotherapy was performed after operation.ResultsAll IMAP propeller flaps survived well, and the donor sites healed by first intention. All 15 patients were followed up 12-24 months (mean, 16 months). No telangiectasia or incision dehiscence occurred. No radiation-related carcinogenesis occurred during follow-up. The patients were satisfied with the breast shape and symmetry after operation. The symptoms of pain and itching relieved at keloid area in 13 cases (86.7%), with no obvious recurrence of keloid at the donor site and the primary site. Only 2 cases (13.3%) recurred and were treated with continuously conservative treatment.ConclusionIMAP propeller flap is an ideal reconstruction method for repairing the wounds after chest keloid excision in female patients, which can preserve the good breast shape. The IMAP propeller flap repair combined with early postoperative radiotherapy can effectively reduce the recurrence rate, and the effectiveness is satisfactory.
