Abstract

For radiotherapy in rectal cancer patients treated with small bowel displacement device (SBDD) and belly board, We will suggest new indication of using SBDD depending on obesity index by analyzing correlation between obesity and irradiated small bowel volume. In this study, We reviewed 29 rectal cancer patients who received pelvic radiation therapy with belly board and SBDD from January to April in 2012. We only analyzed those patients treated with three-field technique (PA and both LAT) on 45 Gy (1.8 Gy/fx). We measured patients' height, weight, body mass index (BMI), waist-hip ratio (WHR) and divided BMI into two groups.(${\geq}23$:BMI=group1, <23:BMI=group2) We performed a statistical analysis to evaluate correlation between total volume of bladder($TV_{bladder}$), obesity index and high dose volume of small bowel (small bowel volume irradiated at 90% of prescribed dose, $HDV_{sb}$), low dose volume of small bowel (small bowel volume irradiated at 33% of prescribed dose, $LDV_{sb}$). The result shows, gender, WHR and status of pre operative or post operative do not greatly affect $HDV_{sb}$ and $LDV_{sb}$. Statistical result shows, there are significant correlation between $HDV_{sb}$ and BMI (p<0.04), $HDV_{sb}$ and $TV_{bladder}$ (p<0.01), $LDV_{sb}$ and $TV_{bladder}$ (p<0.01). BMI seems to correlate with $HDV_{sb}$ but does not with $LDV_{sb}$ (p>0.05). There are negative correlation between $HDV_{sb}$ and BMI, $TV_{bladder}$ and $HDV_{sb}$, $TV_{bladder}$ and $LDV_{sb}$. Especially, BMI group1 has more effective and negative correlation with $HDV_{sb}$ (p=0.027) than in BMI group2. In the case of BMI group 1, $TV_{bladder}$ has significant negative correlation with $HDV_{sb}$ and $LDV_{sb}$ (p<0.04). In conclusions, we confirmed that Using SBDD with belly board in BMI group1 could more effectively reduce irradiated small bowel volume in radiation therapy for rectal cancer. Therefore, We suggest using belly board with SBDD in order to reduce the small bowel toxicity in rectal radiotherapy, if patients' BMI is above 23.

본 연구의 목적은 방사선 조사 용적 내 포함되는 소장의 용적 감소를 위해 복부판(Belly board, 벨리보드)과 소장변위도구(Small Bowel Displacement Device, SBDD)를 사용한 직장암 환자에서 방사선 치료 영역 내 포함되는 소장의 용적과 비만도 와의 상관성을 보고, 비만지표의 적용을 통해 SBDD의 사용지표를 삼고자 한다. 실험은 2012년 1월부터 4월까지 수술 전 혹은 수술 후 벨리보드와 SBDD를 사용해 골반부위에 방사선치료를 받은 29명의 직장암 환자를 대상으로 분석하였다. 방사선 치료는 3문 조사로 시행하였으며 1.8 Gy의 분할선량으로 중심점에 45 Gy를 조사한 계획만을 분석하였다. 환자의 키, 몸무게, 체질량지수(body mass index, BMI), 허리 엉덩이 둘레비(waist hip ratio, WHR)를 측정하여 비만도를 조사하였다. 조사되는 선량의 90%이상 들어가는 소장의 용적(high dose volume of small bowel, $HDV_{sb}$)과 33%이상 들어가는 소장의 용적(low dose volume of small bowel, $LDV_{sb}$)을 방광의 총 용적(total volume of bladder, $TV_{bladder}$) 및 비만도에 따라 비교하여 그 상관관계를 통계학적으로 분석하였다. 분석결과 수술여부 및 성별 WHR은 $HDV_{sb}$, $LDV_{sb}$에 크게 미치는 영향이 없었고 $HDV_{sb}$, $LDV_{sb}$와 BMI(p=0.031/0.083), $TV_{bladder}$ (p<0.05)는 통계적으로 유의하였다. BMI가 $HDV_{sb}$와는 유의 하지만 $LDV_{sb}$와는 크게 유의하지 않았다. (p=0.031, p>0.05) BMI는 $HDV_{sb}$와 음의 상관관계(${\beta}$=-0.402)가 있었으며 $TV_{bladder}$$HDV_{sb}$, $LDV_{sb}$와 음의 상관관계(${\beta}$=-0.497/-0.522)가 있었다. 특히 BMI 23 미만인 경우(BMI Group2)보다 그 이상인 경우 $HDV_{sb}$에 영향을 미치며 음의 상관성(${\beta}$=-0.525)이 있었다.($LDV_{sb}$, $HDV_{sb}$와 유의확률 각각 p=0.059, p=0.027) BMI가 23 이상인 집단(BMI Group1)에서는 $TV_{bladder}$$HDV_{sb}$, $LDV_{sb}$가 통계학적으로 유의하였고(p<0.04) 음의 상관성을 보였다. 비만지표인 BMI가 23 이상인 과체중 및 비만군의 직장암 방사선 치료 시 벨리보드와 SBDD를 동시에 사용하는 경우 조사용적 내 포함되는 소장의 용적을 감소시키는데 더 효과적이었다. 그러므로 벨리보드를 사용하는 직장암의 방사선 치료 시 BMI 23 이상인 한국인 환자에게는 소장변위도구를 동시에 사용 할 것을 권장한다.
