To evaluate the effectiveness and safety of yttrium-90 transarterial radioembolization (TARE) for the treatment of primary and metastatic soft tissue sarcoma (STS) of the liver.
A retrospective review of 39 patients with primary (n = 2) and metastatic (n = 37) hepatic STS treated with TARE at 4
Classic Kaposi's sarcoma (KS) is a multifocal angioproliferative disorder with a long and indolent course typically affecting the lower extremities of elderly men. Multiple nodules with a rapid growth may sometimes develop, causing pain, bleeding, and discomfort on walking. In such BACKGROUND
Kaposi sarcoma (KS) is a systemic disease that can present with cutaneous lesions with or without internal involvement, mostly caused by infection with human herpesvirus-8. The treatment options include surgical excision, cryotherapy, radiotherapy, intralesional chemotherapy, laser, and
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate Kirsten rat sarcoma viral oncogene homolog (KRAS) mutation status as a prognostic factor for survival after yttrium-90 ((90)Y) radioembolization for colorectal cancer (CRC) liver metastases.
METHODS
Consecutive patients with unresectable CRC liver metastases and documented KRAS
Most countries still do not achieve 1 IU of factor VIII/capita sufficient for survival. Although primary prophylaxis prevents synovitis, is not universally used. Chronic synovitis is treated with arthroscopy at expense of considerable amount of coagulation factors, and specialized surgeons.
Selective internal radiation therapy is a relatively new technique that irradiates primary and metastatic liver cancer using yttrium 90 microspheres. Increasing reports have shown this to be a useful treatment for unresectable primary hepatocellular carcinoma and others metastases from colon, lung,
BACKGROUND
Unresectable hepatic metastases from aerodigestive cancers are common and in most cases herald a poor prognosis. A small percentage of patients maybe amenable to surgical resection or ablation once the biology of the disease and the burden of hepatic disease are better understood. The use
A synchronous evaluation was performed, using a quick in vivo [2-(14)C]thymidine labeling method, of the toxico- and pharmaco-dynamics of a given dose of yttrium-90 (90Y) at a given time after injection to nude BALB/c mice loaded with 10(7) HuO9 cells. Quantitative data were 14C-microautoradiographs
Purpose: Yttrium-90 (90Y)-polymer composite (radiogel) may be administered directly into cancerous tissues to deliver highly localized beta radiation for therapy. In a dose-escalation study, the authors investigated the feasibility of treating feline and canine soft-tissue sarcomas
Purpose: To assess the safety and effectiveness of yttrium-90 radioembolization and checkpoint inhibitor immunotherapy within a short interval for the treatment of unresectable hepatic metastases.
We previously reported Frizzled homolog 10 (FZD10), a member of the Frizzled family, to be a promising therapeutic target for synovial sarcomas. In this report, we established a murine monoclonal antibody (MAb), namely, MAb 92-13 that had specific binding activity against native FZD10 product
Primary malignant liver tumors are rare but all require surgical resection as part of therapy with curative intent. A minority of patients have resectable tumors at diagnosis. Chemotherapy has a therapeutic role in hepatoblastoma but only one-third of patients have resectable disease at diagnosis.
Background and objectives: This study assessed the outcomes of Yttrium-90 (90 Y) radiation segmentectomy for hepatic metastases unamenable to resection or ablation.
