  • 방사선치료후 재발성 또는 잔존성 두경부암의 수술후에 피부판의 괴사 및 slough, 감염, 누공, 부종과 경동맥 노출 심지어는 경동맥 파열 등의 술후 합병증이 빈발함으로 수술에 큰 어려움을 겪게 된다. Pectoralis major myocutaneous flap은 진행된 두경부암의 광범위한 절제후에 그 결손부를 보충해 주는 데 좋은 방법으로 사용할 수 있을 뿐아니라 방사선치료후에 생긴 합병증에도 이 flap을 이용하여 좋은 치료결과를 얻을 수 있다. 저자들은 수술 전에 방사선치료를 받고 심한 부종으로 후두조직의 괴사 및 기능이 손실된 환자와 방사선 치료후 재발된 상인두암환자의 경우에서 수술 후 생긴 pharyngocutaneous fistula와 피부판감염 및 경동맥노출 등으로 치유가 곤란하여 여기에 pectoralis major myocutaneous flap을 사용하여 pharyngostoma를 재건하고 노출된 경동맥부위를 보호하여 좋은 치료효과를 얻었기에 문헌을 고찰하여 보고하는 바이다.

  • 구강과 구인두에서 발생되는 유표피암은 전체 예수병원 암환자의 3.9%를 차지한다. 만 20 년 간의 월발성 유표피암 환자 5%명에 대한 고찰결과, 혀 전방 2/3 에서 29%로써 가장 높은 발생빈도를 보였으며 faucial arch, base of tongue 및 tonsil을 포함한 구 인두는 28%의 발생빈도를 나타냈다. 그외는 잇몸, 구강저, 구순, 구개 (palate) 및 구강내 점막의 빈도순이었다. 환자 중 153 명 만이 근치적 치료를 받았다. 1974 년 이전에는 치료 정책에 수술만이 활용되었던 까닭으로 역행성 분석결과 74 명에서는 수술만 시행케 되었으나, 그 이후의 70 명에서는 종합적치료를 시행하였으며 그중 9 명은 확실한 방사선요법을 받았다. COMMANDO 수술과 복합절제술 (Composite resection) 을 시행했던 환자들의 비교검토는 매우 의의가 있었다. 수술만 받은 환자와 비교해 볼때, 수술후 방사선요법을 병행했던 수술환자의 경우에 있어서 재발율은, Stage III 에서는 50%에서 41%로, Stage IV 는 79%에서 68%로 각각 감소를 보였다. 또한, COMMANDO 수술 경우만 국한시켜 비교할 때는 수술만 받은 환자와 비교할 때 수술후 방사선치료를 받은 환자와 비교하여 2 년간 무병율 (disease free interval) 이 수술후 방사선요법을 병행함으로써 17.3%에서 29.3%로 증가됨을 알 수 있었다.

  • Purpose : In the radiosurgery, to obtain CT image to find more accurate tumor position during respiration, and using them, to increase the accuracy of radiation treatment by applying image guided. Materials and Methods : Using the self-made vacuum cushion for the body SRS, CT images were obtained three for each patient during respiration (shallow, inhalation, exhalation). They were transformed to the RTP computer and then were fused. Global GTVs were delineated on the fused images and more appropriated treatment planning was established. Results : We can find the tumor position is moving toward cranio-caudal with max 10 mm margin and volume is transformed. As a result from the comparision of DVH (pre & post radio surgery), we observed about 100% dose to tumor. Conclusion : BSRS was skeptical due to the tumor movement during respiration. More accurate by the combination of the development of immobilization devices and BSRS based on Image Guide, it will be applied to more cases for BSRS.

  • Purpose : Stereotactic radiosurgery with external beam irradiation successfully obliterates carefully selected intracranial arteriovenous malformation (AVM) . We Present clinical and radiological long term results after treatment with a single high dose irradiation using a linear accelerator. Materials and Methods : Rrom January 1991 to June 1994, fifteen patients with intracranial AVM were treated in our hospital with the stereotactic radiosurgery using a linear accelerator. The radiation was delivered using a 6 MV linear accelerator. The prescribed doses at the isocenter varied from 1800 to 2500cGy (median : 2000cGy) and were given as a sin91e fraction. The radiation doses at the periphery of the lesion typically corresponded to the 80-90% isodose line. In 14 patients, complete clinical and/or radiological follow-up examination were available. Results : Angiography was available in 13 patients with a follow-up Period from 18 months to 27 months. Of 13 patients, the overall complete obliteration rate was 92.3% (12 patients). This incidence did not correlate with lesion size. Seizure, headache and progressive neurologic deficit were complete recovered. One Patient experienced hemorrhage at 2 months after treatment. One patient developed radiation induced brain edema in the white matter surrounding nidus at 16 months after treatment and showed complete resolution of the edema in MR image obtained at 27 months after treatment. After a follow-up period of up to 6 years, no radiation induced severe late complications occurred. Conclusion : We conclude that stereotactic radiosurgery using a linear accelerator is an effective and safe therapy for symptomatic and surgically inaccessible intracranial AVMs and the results compare favorably to the more expensive and elaborate systems that are currently available for stereotactic radiosurgery.

  • 부비동에 발생하는 악성종양은 자각증상이 비교적 늦게 나타나 병변이 많이 진행된 후에 발견되는 경우가 대부분이다. 진행된 부비동압의 치료는 수술, 화학요법, 방사선요법의 병용치료법이 종래부터 시도되어왔으며 대부분의 경우 광범위한 수술적 절제가 필요하여 이에 따른 후유증이 크고 치료결과는 아직 많은 논란이 있다. 저자들은 진행된 부비동암 (T4)환자 10명에서 유도화학요법 (Cisplatin, 5-FU)후 수술 (상악절제술 4예, 두개안면 절제술 1예 )과 방사선 치료 (약 7000 cGy)를 받은 5명과 유도화학요법후 방사선치료만 받은 5명을 비교하여 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 1. 수술을 포함한 병용요법을 받은 환자 6명중 3명은 평균추적기간 28개월 동안 재발의 증거가 없었으나 2명에서 국소재발이 있었고 이들은 국소 절제술 및 방사선치료후 현재 1년 이상 무병상태이다. 2. 수술을 포함한 병용요법을 받은 환자 5명중 4명에서 초진시 안와내 종양침윤의 소견이 있었으나 수술시 안와를 보존하였고 그 후 안와 부위의 국소 재발은 없었다. 3. 유도화학요법과 방사선치료만을 받은 5명 모두 6개월 이내에 국소재발하였다. 4. 진행된 악성 부비동암은 수술을 포함한 병용요법으로 좀 더 좋은 치료성적을 얻을 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

  • Purpose: This study explored the anal sphincter-saving rate and down-staging rate after preoperative chemoradiotherapy for treating lower rectal cancer. We also explored the prognosis of the patients who refused surgery after preoperative chemoradiotherapy. Materials and Methods: Thirty seven patients with histologically proven lower rectal cancer who underwent preoperative chemoradiotherapy were retrospectively analyzed. In each case, the tumor location was 0 to 5 em from the anal verge, and curative resection of the cancer with performing a sphincter-saving procedure was not feasible before chemoradiotherapy. In each case, the staging examinations, including biopsy, were done before starting radiotherapy and this was repeated at 1 month after radiation therapy. Results: After chemoradiotherapy, among the 37 included patients, 56.8% and 32.4% were downstaged to the T stage and N stage, respectively, when comparing the postradiotherapy stage with pre-radiotherapy stage. Twenty five patients underwent complete resection of cancer at 6 weeks after radiotherapy: eleven, eight and six patients underwent abdominoperineal resection, low anterior resection and local excision, respectively. The sphincter-saving rate among the 24 completely resected cases was 54.2%. Twelve patients refused surgery after radiotherapy. Among 6 patients who refused surgery with biopsy-proven complete remission after chemoradiotherapy, 5 patients were alive without disease at a median follow up period of 31 months, and only 1 patient had local failure. Conclusion: For lower rectal cancer, a high sphincter-saving rate was accomplished with preoperative chemoradiotherapy. The prognosis of the patients who refused surgery with biopsy proven complete remission after chemoradiotherapy was good and these patients need to be kept under close surveillance.

  • The goal of a radiation treatment plan is to deliver a homogeneous dose to a target with minimal irradiation of the adjacent normal tissues. Dose uniformity is especially important for stereotactic radiosurgery using a linear accelerator. The dose uniformity and high dose delivery of a single spherical dose distribution exceed 70%. This also results with a similar stereotactic radiosurgical plan using a Gamma Knife. The dose distribution produced in a stereotactic radiosurgical plan using a Gamma Knife and Linear accelerator is spherical, and the application of the sphere packing arrangement in a real radiosurgical plan requires much time and skill. In this study, we found a characteristic of dose distribution with transformation of beam parameters that must be considered in a radiosurgical plan for effective radiosurgery. First, we assumed a cylinder type tumor model and a cube type tumor model. Secondly, the results of the tumor models were compared and analyzed with dose profiles and DVH_(Dose Volume Histogram) representative dose distribution. We found the optimal composition of beam parameters_(i.e. collimator size, number of isocenter, gap of isocenters etc.), which allowed the tumor models to be involved in the isodose curve at a high level. In conclusion, the characteristics found in this study are helpful for improving the effectiveness and speed of a radiosurgical plan for stereotactic radiosurgery.

  • Purpose: We evaluated whether Cyberknife radiosurgery is an effective and safe method of therapy for medically intractable trigeminal neuralgia (TN). Materials and Methods: We retrospectively analyzed the outcome of 26 patients, who failed to surgery or were not suitable candidates for invasive intervention and were treated by Cyberknife radiosurgery between March 2004 and May 2005. Radiosurgery doses of $60{\sim}64 Gy$ were delivered to the 80% isodose line prescribed to an 6 mm length of the nerve, sparing the most proximal 3 mm away from the trigeminal nerve root entry zone (median dose: 64 Gy). Results: Follow-up period was $3{\sim}15$ months (median follow-up period: 9 months) Preliminary results from a cohort of 26 patients undergoing Cyberknife radiosurgery for TN showed that pain relief was achieved in 50% (13/26) of patients within the first 24 hrs after treatment. At last follow-up, 96.2% (25/26) of patients reported early pain relief within 7 days. Treatment failure developed in 2 of 26. Poor response occurred in one patient and relapse was observed in the other patient. 3 patients had hypoesthesia (11.5%), which was the only complication observed with any of our patients. Conclusion: With these results, authors assumed that Cyberknife radiosurgery for TN could be one of safe and effective therapeutic methods.

  • Stereotactic Radiosurgery require high accuracy and precision of patient positioning and target localization. We evaluate the real time positioning accuracy of isocenter using optic guided patient positioning system, ExacTrac (BrainLab, Germany), during spinal radiosurgery procedure. The system is based on real time detect multiple body markers attached on the selected patient skin landmarks. And a custom designed patient positioning verification tool (PPVT) was used to check the patient alignment and correct the patient repositioning before radiosurgery. In this study, We investigate the selected 8 metastatic spinal tumor cases. All type of tumors commonly closed to thoracic spinal code. To evaluate the isocenter positioning, real time patient alignment and positioning monitoring was carried out for comparing the current 3-dimensional position of markers with those of an initial reference positions. For a selected patient case, we have check the isocenter positioning per every 20 millisecond for 45 seconds during spinal radiosurgery. In this study, real time average isocenter positioning translation were $0.07{\pm}0.17$ mm, $0.11{\pm}0.18$ mm, $0.13{\pm}0.26$ mm, and $0.20{\pm}0.37$ mm in the x (lateral), y (longitudinal), z (vertical) directions and mean spatial error, respectively. And body rotations were $0.14{\pm}0.07^{\circ}$, $0.11{\pm}0.07^{\circ}$, $0.03{\pm}0.04^{\circ}$ in longitudinal, lateral, table directions and mean body rotation $0.20{\pm}0.11^{\circ}$, respectively. In this study, the maximum mean deviation of real time isocenter positioning translation during spinal radiosurgery was acceptable accuracy clinically.
