Objective To study the curative effects of keloid by operation combined with postoperative β radiation and silicone gel sheeting. Methods From 1996 to 2002, 598 patients with keloid(243 males, 355 females, aging 15-55 years with an average of 28.6 years) were treated by integrated therapy. Their disease courses were from 6 months to 6 years. The keloid area ranged from 1.0 cm×1.5 cm~8.0 cm×15 cm. First, keloid was removed by operation, and then the wounds weresutured directly(group suture) or covered with skin graft(group graft). In groupsuture, the operational sites were managed by β ray radiotherapy 24-48 hours after operation. The total doses of radiation were 12-15 Gy, 5 times 1 week(group suture A) and 10 times 2 weeks (group suture B). Radiotherapy was not taken until stitches were taken out in group graft, and then the same methods were adopted as group suture B. After radiotherapy, silicone gel sheeting was used in 325 cases for 3-6 months. Results All patients were followed up for 12-18 months. (1) The overall efficacy was 91.3% in group suture A(n=196), and 95.8% in group suture B (n=383), respectively. There was significant difference between the two groups(Plt;0.01). (2) Radiotherapy was of no effect in 6 cases of group graft(n=19). (3) Silicone gel sheeting had effectivenessin 185 cases. Silicone gel sheeting had no obvious effect on the overall efficacy, but it could improve the quality of texture and color of skin. Conclusion By use of integrated methods to treat keloid, if the wound can be sutured directly, skin grafting should not be adopted. The results in group suture B are better than those in group suture A; silicone gel sheeting should be used as possible.
ObjectiveTo investigate the effectiveness of internal mammary artery perforator (IMAP) propeller flap repair combined with radiotherapy for chest keloid in female patients.MethodsBetween January 2015 and December 2016, 15 female patients with chest keloids were treated, aged 28-75 years (mean, 45.2 years). The keloid disease duration was 1-28 years (median, 6 years). The causes of disease included secondary keloid caused by folliculitis in 7 cases, cardiac surgery in 4 cases, skin abrasion in 2 cases, mosquito bite in 1 case, and unknown etiology in 1 case. The size of keloid ranged from 5 cm×3 cm to 17 cm×6 cm. The IMAP propeller flaps were used to repair the defects after chest keloid excision. The size of flaps ranged from 7 cm×5 cm to 14 cm×8 cm. The donor sits were sutured directly. The routine radiotherapy was performed after operation.ResultsAll IMAP propeller flaps survived well, and the donor sites healed by first intention. All 15 patients were followed up 12-24 months (mean, 16 months). No telangiectasia or incision dehiscence occurred. No radiation-related carcinogenesis occurred during follow-up. The patients were satisfied with the breast shape and symmetry after operation. The symptoms of pain and itching relieved at keloid area in 13 cases (86.7%), with no obvious recurrence of keloid at the donor site and the primary site. Only 2 cases (13.3%) recurred and were treated with continuously conservative treatment.ConclusionIMAP propeller flap is an ideal reconstruction method for repairing the wounds after chest keloid excision in female patients, which can preserve the good breast shape. The IMAP propeller flap repair combined with early postoperative radiotherapy can effectively reduce the recurrence rate, and the effectiveness is satisfactory.
ObjectiveTo compare the dosimetric differences among the double-arc volumetric-modulated arc therapy (VMAT), 7 field intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) and 3-dimensional conformal radiotherapy (3D-CRT) techniques in treatment planning for cervical cancer as adjuvant radiotherapy. MethodFifteen patients who underwent adjuvant chemotherapy for cervical cancer between March 1st and September 30th, 2013 were chosen to be our study subjects through random sampling. Under Pinnacle 9.2 planning system, the same CT image was designed through three different techniques:VMAT, IMRT and 3D-CRT. We then compared target zone fitness index, evenness index, D98%, D2%, D50% among those different techniques. Monitor unit (MU) and treatment time were also analyzed. ResultsThree techniques showed similar target dose coverage. The IMRT and VMAT plans achieved better target dose conformity, which reduced the V20 of the pelvic, the V50 of the rectum and bladder, as well as the V40/50 of the small intestine (P<0.05). The VMAT technique showed few dosimetric advantages over the IMRT technique. VMAT technique had the advantages of less MU (P>0.05) and shorter overall treatment time (P<0.01) compared with IMRT technique. ConclusionsThe IMRT and VMAT plans achieve similar dose distribution to the target, and are superior to the 3D-CRT plans, in adjuvant radiotherapy for cervical cancer. VMAT technique has the advantages of less MU and shorter overall treatment time.
