Conclusions: Chloroma
Bakst R et al Int J Radiat Oncol Biol Phys 2012
• RT resulted in excellent local disease control and palliation of
symptoms without significant toxicity
• RT might have a role in cases of: isolated chloroma,
inadequate response to chemotherapy, recurrence after
allogeneic transplant, and in circumstances that require rapid
symptom relief
• We recommend irradiating chloromas to at least 20 Gy, and
propose 24 Gy in 12 fractions as an appropriate regimen
