Purpose or Objective

This study aimed to compare treatment between

Tomotherapy and IMRT for bilateral breast cancer.

Material and Methods

We selected 10 patients of breast cancer who were

performed partial mastectomy for study. All patient were

early stage breast cancer pT1~T2. A total dose of 5040cGy

was delivered for definitive breast irradiation of IMRT and

Tomotherapy for each patient in treatment planning

system. In this study, we analyzed comparable treatment

of IMRT vs Tomotherapy for bilateral breast. Bilateral

whole breast dose coverage, Conformity index,

Homogeneity index and dose volume constraints of normal

tissue (Right and Left lung, Heart) were analyzed.

Results

Tomotherapy was better than IMRT for significant

improvements in reducing the volume of normal tissue. In

volume of heart in V20 (Tomo:1.543% versus IMRT: 2.955%;

p=0.023) and in lung volume achieving lower mean lung

dose (MLD) (Rt lung mean dose: Tomo: 6.388 Gy versus

IMRT: 8.828Gy; p = 0.017; Lt lung mean dose Tomo: 6.24

Gy versus IMRT: 7.71Gy; p = 0.013). The conformity indices

(V

) of right and left breast were (1.08 +/- 0.01) &

(1.07 +/- 0.02) in Tomo and (1.07 +/-0.02) & (1.08 +/-

0.01) in IMRT. For homogeneity indices, Tomo were (1.36

+/- 0.08) & (1.53+/- 0.46) and IMRT was (1.65 +/- 0.44) &

(1.51 +/- 0.26) in right and left breast.

Conclusion

Tomotherapy provided significant reduction in heart’s

dose volume and mean lung dose.

Purpose/Objective:

The aim of the study was to report acute and late toxicity

of intraoperative radiotherapy (IORT) given as a boost

during breast conserving surgery (BCS) followed by

adjuvant whole breast radiotherapy (WBRT).

Material and

Methods

Between 2008 and 2011 in 150 breast cancers patients

treated in Greater Poland Cancer Centre. Intraoperative

radiotherapy as a tumor bed boost was applied using

mobile electron accelerator Mobetron 1000 (IntraOp

Medical, Inc.). IORT boost (10 Gy) was followed by 50 Gy

whole-breast external beam radiotherapy (EBRT).

Chemotherapy, if indicated, was given before EBRT. The

observation period was 1,5-5,5 years.

The data was assessed by CTCAE ver. 3.0 scale 1 month

and 6 months after RT. The statistical analysis was

performed with Maentel-Haenszel test. Late toxicity was

analyzed with LENT-SOMA scale 1 year after RT.

Results

Tab 1. Acute toxicity data set.

There was only grade I and II acute toxicity reactions.

There was no statistical significance differences between

(Mantel-Haenszel test) percentage of patients with acute

reaction in 1 month and 6 months after RT.

Tab 2. Late toxicity data set.

The late toxicity occurred in 82 patients (55%). The main

side effect of treatment was fibrosis, which has occurred

in 60 patients (73.1%) from 82 in general with late

radiation induced reactions. There was grade I and II

predominance. Grade III occurred in 5 patients (skin

retraction).

Conclusion

Intraoperative radiotherapy is proved to be safe, well

tolerable and perspective treatment procedure in breast

cancer treatment.

Purpose or Objective

To analyse the quality of life in stage I-III breast cancer

patients under systemic treatment versus in adjuvant

radiotherapy respect a control group, to observe and to

assess priorities regarding quality of life

Material and Methods

Between May and July of 2014, n: 90 EORTC QLQ C-30

global tests were retrospectively observed in 48 women

divided in 3 groups: A) Sixteen breast cancer patients

under systemic treatment (following adjuvant

chemotherapy or hormonal treatment). B) Sixteen breast

cancer patients following radiotherapy were scored at the

beginning, during radiotherapy and when radiotherapy

courses just ended. C) Sixteen women, hospital workers,

without cancer control group, which two were finally

refused because they had symptoms of chronic fatigue

Results

Women mean ages were 63.5 years old (A), 60.5 years old

(B) and 41 years old in group C, respectively.

Among those 32 breast cancer patient (n: 76 tests), 6 (19%)

were submitted to mastectomy and 26 (81%) to

conservative surgery, with 5 of them that had been

treated with neo - adjuvant chemotherapy. Breast cancer

(TNM) stage was I, II or III in 50%, 37.5% and 12.5%,

respectively.

Asthenia was the main symptom in all cases being low in

control group. However, asthenia was considerable or

severe in the 56% of cases in the systemic treatment group

and 27.5% in radiotherapy group. Asthenia increases a 6%
