Öğe Clinicopathological Characteristics and Prognosis of Patients According To Recurrence Time After Radical Nephrectomy for Localized Renal Cell Carcinoma: A Multicenter Study of Anatolian Society of Medical Oncology (ASMO)(Int Inst Anticancer Research, 2014) Bozkurt, Oktay; Inanc, Mevlude; Hacibekiroglu, Ilhan; Esbah, Onur; Seker, Metin; Ulas, Arife; Aydin, KubraAim: We investigated the clinicopathological features in patients with recurrent RCC within 5 years or more than 5 years after nephrectomy and determined predictors of survival and response treatment after recurrence. Materials and Methods: We retrospectively evaluated 144 patients with disease recurrence; 73 had recurrence more than 5 years after radical nephrectomy. We compared clinicopathological characteristics in patients with disease recurrence before vs. after 5 years. In addition, we investigated predictors of survival and response to treatment after recurrence. Results: Seventy-one patients (49%) were diagnosed with recurrence within 5 years after radical nephrectomy (early recurrence) and 73 patients (51%) were diagnosed with recurrence more than 5 years after radical nephrectomy (late recurrence). Fuhrman grade, tumor necrosis and lymphovascular invasion were statistically significantly different between the two groups (p<0.001, p=0.013, p=0.026, respectively). The late recurrence patients were significantly associated with the Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSKCC) favorable risk group compared to patients with early recurrence (p=0.001). From the time of disease recurrence, median Overall Survival (OS) was 36.0 (95% Confidence Interval (CI) 30.7-412) months in the late recurrence group, and 19 (95% CI 15.4-22.5) months in the early recurrence group (p=0.01). The median Progression Free Survival (PFS) was 6 (95% CI 3.87-8.12) months in the early recurrence group, and 18 (95% CI 15.4-20.5) months for the late recurrence group (p<0.001). Conclusion: Early recurrence was significantly associated with Fuhrman grade 3-4, tumor necrosis, lymphovascular invasion, MSKCC poor- risk group compared to patients with late recurrence. The study also demonstrated a potential prognostic value of late recurrence in terms of PFS and OS.Öğe Multicenter experience of adult medulloblastoma: A study of Anatolian Society of Medical Oncology (ASMO)(Zerbinis Medical Publ, 2016) Esbah, Onur; Demirci, Umut; Dane, Faysal; Gunaydsin, Yusuf; Ozdemir, Nuriye; Ekinci, Ahmet Siyar; Kodaz, HilmiPurpose: Medulloblastoma (MB) is rarely seen in adults. For adjuvant therapy in adults the same therapy protocols used in pediatric cases are used. The present study retrospectively evaluated the data of MB patients who were treated in different Oncology Centers in Turkey. Methods: The data of 60 adult patients with MB from 8 Oncology Centers diagnosed between 2005 and 2012 were retrospectively analyzed. Results: The median patient age was 28.8 years (range 16-54). The administered chemotherapy included procarbazine-Flomustin vincristine (group A, N=31) and cyclophosphamide/ifosfamide+vincristine+cisplatin (group B, N=13). Median chemotherapy courses were 4 (range 1-8). Median progression free survival (PFS) was 76 months and median overall survival (OS) has not been reached in both groups. In young female patients and in those who received adjuvant chemotherapy, median PFS and OS were longer but without statistical significance. Mean PFS and OS were 65.9 months and 101.2 months in group A and 113.6 months and 141.6 months in group B, respectively. Conclusion: Improved survival results were obtained in women, in patients aged below 25 years, in those who underwent gross total excision (GTE) and in those who received adjuvant therapy with cyclophosphamide/ifosphamide.Öğe Role of PET/CT in Treatment Planning for Head and Neck Cancer Patients Undergoing Definitive Radiotherapy(Asian Pacific Organization Cancer Prevention, 2014) Arslan, Sonay; Abakay, Candan Demiroz; Sen, Feyza; Altay, Ali; Akpinar, Tayyar; Ekinci, Ahmet Siyar; Esbah, OnurBackground: In this study, we aimed to investigate the benefits of 18F-deoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography (FGD-PET/CT) imaging for staging and radiotherapy planning in patients with head and neck cancer undergoing definitive radiotherapy. Materials and Methods: Thirty-seven head and neck cancer patients who had undergone definitive radiotherapy and PET/CT at the Uludag University Medical Faculty Department of Radiation Oncology were investigated in order to determine the role of PET/CT in staging and radiotherapy planning. Results: The median age of this patient group of 32 males and 5 females was 57 years (13-84years). The stage remained the same in 18 cases, decreased in 5 cases and increased in 14 cases with PET/CT imaging. Total gross tumor volume (GTV) determined by CT (GTVCT-Total) was increased in 32 cases (86.5%) when compared to total GTV determined by PET/CT (GTVPET/CT-Total). The GTV of the primary tumor determined by PET/CT (GTVPET/CT) was larger in 3 cases and smaller in 34 cases compared to that determined by CT (GTVCT). The GTV of lymph nodes determined by PET/CT (GTVLNPET/CT) was larger in 20 cases (54%) and smaller in 12 cases (32.5%) when compared to GTV values determined by CT (GTVLNCT). No pathological lymph nodes were observed in the remaining five cases with both CT and PET/CT. Conclusions: We can conclude that PET/CT can significantly affect both pretreatment staging and assessed target tumor volume in patients with head and neck cancer. We therefore recommend examining such cases with PEC/CT before treatment.
