  • Photodynamic therapy using topical 5-ALA has been used for non-melanoma skin cancers. Recently, the therapeutic method using incoherent light brought beneficial result in the treatment for mycosis fungoides. We used ALA-PDT for two Japanese patients suffering from lymphadenosis benigna cutis. In both cases, lesions were markedly faded and histologically, the number of infiltrated cells also decreased. We suggest that ALA-PDT can be used as an effective and safe modality in the treatment of benign cutaneous lymphoma.

  • Mycosis fungoides is the most common type of cutaneous T-cell lymphoma. Patients with early stage disease usually respond well to conventional therapies, with a relatively favorable prognosis. However, a few patients are refractory to treatment and need alternative strategies, even at the patch and plaque stages. We report the case of a middle-aged woman with long-standing and refractory mycosis fungoides that responded to combination therapy with the 308-nm excimer laser and oral alitretinoin.

  • During a designated period(Jan. 2003$\sim$Jun. 2006), a total of 2,051 biopsy and necropsy cases submitted to Veterinary Medical Teaching Hospital of Seoul National University and local practitioners were diagnosed as canine tumors based on microscopic evaluation in the Department of Veterinary Pathology, College of Veterinary Medicine, Seoul National University. Four hundred and twenty of 2,051 tumor specimens excluding mammary(883, 43.1%) and cutaneous(748, 36.5%) tumors were included in this retrospective study. They were composed of genital tumors(189, 45.0%) followed by alimentary(113, 26.9%), hematopoietic(52, 12.4%), urinary(20, 4.8%), bone & joint(15, 3.6%), ocular & otic(9, 2.1%), respiratory(6, 1.4%), endocrine(6, 1.4%), and miscellaneous(10, 2.4%). Particular top ten tumor most frequently diagnosed were seminoma(48, 11.4%) followed by fibrous epulis(38, 9.0%), lymphoma(38, 9.0%), leiomyoma(33, 7.9%), fibroma(26, 6.2%), ovarian cyst(19, 4.5%), melanoma(15, 3.6%), papilloma(14, 3.3%), cystic endometrial hyperplasia(13, 3.1%), granulosa cell tumor(13, 3.1%) in descending order comprising 257(61.2%). The affected age of the animals with ten frequent tumors ranged from 3 months to 17 years old with a mean of 9.2 years old(n=218). There were no significant sex prevalence except female leiomyoma. The top seven anatomical sites of tumors inclusive were gingiva(62, 14.8%), testis(61, 14.5%), ovary(48, 11.4%), vagina(40, 9.5%), uterus(36, 8.6%), lymph node(30, 7.1%), and spleen(21, 5.0%).

  • 연부조직만으로 경구개를 재건하는데 있어서는 환자군을 적절히 선택하는 것이 중요하며 골재건이 필요하지 않은 Okay 분류 Ia와 Ib가 주요한 적응증이 된다. 하악이나 구강저부 결손을 재건하는 것과는 다르게 경구개 결손은 구강과 비강 점막층을 동시에 수복할 수 있는 피판이 이상적이다. 이중 저자들은 전완유리피판에 전상판화 방법을 좀 더 안정적으로 시행, 경구개 전층을 성공적으로 재건하였으며, 특히 저작과 연하 등 기능적 측면뿐 아니라 경구개 및 비강의 점막을 함께 복원할 수 있는 해부학적인 장점이 있는 피판임을 확인하여 문헌고찰과 함께 보고하는 바이다.

  • 선형 가속기의 Total Skin Electron Beam Therapy (TSEBT)는 유용하게 사용 되어왔으며, 2에서 9 MeV 에너지 영역의 전자는 mycosis fungoides와 cutaneous lymphomas와 같은 신체의 큰 부분을 덮는 표면상의 병변 치료에 사용 되어져 왔다. 본 연구에서는 Stanford technique로 환자를 치료 하였으며, Stanford technique는 선형 가속기로 전자 빔을 수평 방향으로 조사하여 서 있는 환자의 주위에 $60^{\circ}$로 위치한 6개의 조사면(anterior, posterior, 그리고 4개의 obliques)으로 치료하는 TSEBT의 표준이 되는 방법이다. 각 조사면은 수평으로 하고 적절한 각도에 점을 맞춘 두 개 성분의 빔으로 이루어져있다. 치료시간을 짧게 하기 위해 환자는 하루에 세 개의 이중 조사면으로 치료한다. 첫째 날에는 anterior로 하나의 이중 조사면, posterior에서 두 개의 이중 조사면 그리고 그 다음날에 posterior에서 하나의 이중 조사면 그리고 anterior 경사에서 두 개의 이중 조사면으로 치료한다. 따라서 6개의 이중 조사면의 완전한 주기는 2일로 완성된다. 환자를 치료하기 전 먼저 선량 측정을 하기 위해 원통형 아크릴 팬텀을 제작하여 그 사이 선량계 필름을 삽입하고 환자가 치료 받는 6개 조사면 방향으로 조사를 한 후 선량 분포를 알아보았다. 그런 후 Rando 팬텀을 사용하여 열형광선량계(thermoluminescent dosimetry : TLD)를 앞 가슴, 좌우 옆구리, 등에 부착한 후 6개 조사면 방향으로 방사선을 조사한 후 선량을 측정 하였다.

  • Creating individualized build-up material for superficial photon beam radiation therapy at irregular surface is complex with rice or commonly used flat shape bolus. In this study, we implemented a workflow using 3D printed patient specific bolus and describe our clinical experience. To provide better fitted build-up to irregular surface, the 3D printing technique was used. The PolyLactic Acid (PLA) which processed with nontoxic plant component was used for 3D printer filament material for clinical usage. The 3D printed bolus was designed using virtual bolus structure delineated on patient CT images. Dose distributions were generated from treatment plan for bolus assigned uniform relative electron density and bolus using relative electron density from CT image and compared to evaluate the inhomogeneity effect of bolus material. Pretreatment QA is performed to verify the relative electron density applied to bolus structure by gamma analysis. As an in-vivo dosimetry, Optically Stimulated Luminescent Dosimeters (OSLD) are used to measure the skin dose. The plan comparison result shows that discrepancies between the virtual bolus plan and printed bolus plan are negligible. (0.3% maximum dose difference and 0.2% mean dose difference). The dose distribution is evaluated with gamma method (2%, 2 mm) at the center of GTV and the passing rate was 99.6%. The OSLD measurement shows 0.3% to 2.1% higher than expected dose at patient treatment lesion. In this study, we treated Mycosis fungoides patient with patient specific bolus using 3D printing technique. The accuracy of treatment plan was verified by pretreatment QA and in-vivo dosimetry. The QA results and 4 month follow up result shows the radiation treatment using 3D printing bolus is feasible to treat irregular patient skin.

  • Purpose: We aimed to evaluate clinical outcomes including progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), partial response, and complete response in patients who underwent radiation therapy (RT) for mycosis fungoides (MF). Also, we sought to find prognostic factors for clinical outcomes. Materials and Methods: Total 19 patients confirmed with MF between 1999-2015 were retrospectively reviewed. Clinical and treatment characteristics, clinical outcomes, and and toxicities were analyzed. Results: Eleven patients were treated with total skin electron beam radiotherapy (TSEBT) and 8 patients with involved field radiation therapy (IFRT) with median dose of 30 Gy, respectively. The median time interval from diagnosis to RT was 2.6 months (range, 0.4 to 87.3 months). The overall response rate was 100%; 11 patients (57.9%) had a complete response and 8 patients (42.1%) a partial response. The presence of positive lymph node at the time of consultation of RT was associated with lower OS (p = 0.043). In multivariate analysis, PFS was significantly lower for patients with increased previous therapies experienced following RT (p = 0.019) and for patients showing PR during RT (p = 0.044). There were no reported grade 3 or more skin toxicities related with RT. Conclusion: Both IFRT and TSEBT are effective treatment for MF patients. Patients with short disease course before RT or complete response during RT are expected to have longer PFS. Positive lymph node status at the initiation of RT was associated woth poor OS, suggesting other treatment modalities such as low-dose RT for patients with low life-expectancy.
