The authors Analyzed the immediate and remote results of treatment of patients with prostate cancer treated by the method - a robotic radiotherapy. Immediate results of treatment were estimated on the level of total PSA, prostate volume, residual urine, change according to the international scale IPSS. The dynamics of the above indicators showed regression of the primary lesion, and the absence of pronounced radiation reactions affect the quality of life of patients. We analyzed the results of overall, relapse-free survival and oncospecific. Three-year disease-free survival in patients receiving radiation therapy is of 88.8%. Overall survival, as well as oncospecific survival rate is 100%.
Also presents first experience of using stereotactic radiotherapy in patients of renal cell carcinoma. Treatment received two (one patient carried out the irradiation of both kidneys). In one patient, complete tumor resorption of the right kidney and a decrease in the size and reduction of contrast enhancement of the tumor of the left kidney. Renal function did not deteriorate. The second patient decreased the size of the tumor, but preserved the contrast enhancement in the vascular phase. The only function of the kidney has not deteriorated.
Radical nephrectomy involves removal of the kidney with paranephrium within Gerota's fascia. The need to perform adrenalectomy, the appropriateness and extent of lymph node dissection remains controversial. The results of treatment of patients with renal cell carcinoma are in the article. In this group, 38.6% of patients had vascular invasion. Nephrectomy was performed from laparotomy, the proximal and distal boundaries of dissection became superior mesenteric artery and the aortic bifurcation. Morphological examination did not reveal highly differentiated tumors. The frequency of renal capsule and perinephric invasion reached 40.9%, unchanged adrenal - 9.1%, regional lymph nodes - 22.7%. This is higher than the published data on the frequency of neoplastic lesions of the lymph nodes. Patients affected appeared to 2 lymph nodes. In conclusion, the authors concluded that such an aggressive approach could improve treatment outcomes.
