Abstract

Introduction: Medulloblastoma is the most common malignant brain tumor in children, but accounts for only 1% of brain cancers in adults. For standard-risk pediatric medulloblastoma, current therapy includes craniospinal irradiation (CSI) at reduced doses (23.4 Gy) associated with chemotherapy. Whereas most same-stage adult patients are still given CSI at 36 Gy, with or without chemotherapy, we report here on our use of reduced-dose CSI associated with chemotherapy for older patients. Methods: We gathered non-metastatic patients over 18 years old (median age 28 years, range 18–48) with minimal or no residual disease after surgery, no negative histological subtypes, treated between 1996–2018 at the Centre Léon Bérard (Lyon) and the INT (Milano). A series of 54 children with similar tumors treated in Milano was used for comparison. Results: Forty-four adults were considered (median follow-up 101 months): 36 had 23.4 Gy of CSI, and 8 had 30.6 Gy, plus a boost to the posterior fossa/tumor bed; 43 had chemotherapy as all 54 children, who had a median 83-month follow-up. The PFS and OS were 82.2 ± 6.1% and 89 ± 5.2% at 5 years, and 78.5 ± 6.9% and 75.2 ± 7.8% at ten, not significantly different from those of the children. CSI doses higher than 23.4 Gy did not influence PFS. Female adult patients tended to have a better outcome than males. Conclusion: The results obtained in our combined series are comparable with, or even better than those obtained after high CSI doses, underscoring the need to reconsider this treatment in adults.

Abstract

PURPOSE: The aim of this study is to investigate the spectrum of neurological triad improvement in patients with diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma (DIPG) treated by re-irradiation (re-RT) at first progression. METHODS: We carried out a re-analysis of the SIOP-E retrospective DIPG cohort by investigating the clinical benefits after re-RT with a focus on the neurological triad (cranial nerve deficits, ataxia, and long tract signs). Patients were categorized as "responding" or "non-responding" to re-RT. To assess the interdependence between patients' characteristics and clinical benefits, we used a chi-square or Fisher's exact test. Survival according to clinical response to re-RT was calculated by the Kaplan-Meier method. RESULTS: As earlier reported, 77% (n = 24/31) of patients had any clinical benefit after re-RT. Among 25/31 well-documented patients, 44% (n = 11/25) had improvement in cranial nerve palsies, 40% (n = 10/25) had improvement in long-tract signs, and 44% (11/25) had improvement in cerebellar signs. Clinical benefits were observed in at least 1, 2, or 3 out of 3 symptoms of the DIPG triad, in 64%, 40%, and 24%, respectively. Patients irradiated with a dose =20 Gy versus

Abstract

Purpose: The aims of patients’ radiological surveillance are to: ascertain relapse; apply second-line therapy; accrue patients in phase 1/2 protocols if second-line therapy is not standardized/curative; and assess/treat iatrogenic effects. To lessen the emotional and socioeconomic burdens for patients and families, we ideally need to establish whether scheduled radiological surveillance gives patients a better outcome than waiting for symptoms and signs to appear. Methods: We analyzed a prospective series of 160 newly-diagnosed and treated pediatric/adolescent patients with intracranial ependymoma, comparing patients with recurrent disease identified on scheduled MRI (the RECPT group; 34 cases) with those showing signs/symptoms of recurrent disease (the SYMPPT group; 16 cases). The median follow-up was 67 months. Results: No significant differences emerged between the two groups in terms of gender, age, tumor grade/site, shunting, residual disease, or type of relapse (local, distant, or concomitant). The time to relapse (median 19 months; range 5–104) and the MRI follow-up intervals did not differ between the SYMPPT and RECPT groups. The presence of signs/symptoms was an unfavorable factor for overall survival (OS) after recurrence (5-year OS: 8% vs. 37%, p = 0.001). On multivariable analysis, an adjusted model confirmed a significantly worse OS in the SYMPPT than in the RECPT patients. Conclusions: Symptomatic relapses carried a significantly worse survival for ependymoma patients than recurrences detected by MRI alone. It would therefore be desirable to identify recurrences before symptoms develop. Radiological follow-up should be retained in ependymoma patient surveillance because there is a chance of salvage treatment for relapses found on MRI

Abstract

Item does not contain fulltext, BACKGROUND: Overall survival (OS) of patients with diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma (DIPG) is poor. The purpose of this study is to analyse benefit and toxicity of re-irradiation at first progression. METHODS: At first progression, 31 children with DIPG, aged 2-16 years, underwent re-irradiation (dose 19.8-30.0 Gy) alone (n = 16) or combined with systemic therapy (n = 15). At initial presentation, all patients had typical symptoms and characteristic MRI features of DIPG, or biopsy-proven high-grade glioma. An interval of >/=3 months after upfront radiotherapy was required before re-irradiation. Thirty-nine patients fulfilling the same criteria receiving radiotherapy at diagnosis, followed by best supportive care (n = 20) or systemic therapy (n = 19) at progression but no re-irradiation, were eligible for a matched-cohort analysis. RESULTS: Median OS for patients undergoing re-irradiation was 13.7 months. For a similar median progression-free survival after upfront radiotherapy (8.2 versus 7.7 months; P = .58), a significant benefit in median OS (13.7 versus 10.3 months; P = .04) was observed in favour of patients undergoing re-irradiation. Survival benefit of re-irradiation increased with a longer interval between end-of-radiotherapy and first progression (3-6 months: 4.0 versus 2.7; P < .01; 6-12 months: 6.4 versus 3.3; P = .04). Clinical improvement with re-irradiation was observed in 24/31 (77%) patients. No grade 4-5 toxicity was recorded. On multivariable analysis, interval to progression (corrected hazard ratio = .27-.54; P < .01) and re-irradiation (corrected hazard ratio = .18-.22; P < .01) remained prognostic for survival. A risk score (RS), comprising 5 categories, was developed to predict survival from first progression (ROC: .79). Median survival ranges from 1.0 month (RS-1) to 6.7 months (RS-5). CONCLUSIONS: The majority of patients with DIPG, responding to upfront radiotherapy, do benefit of re-irradiation with acceptable tolerability.

Abstract

Background This prospective study stratified patients by surgical resection (complete = NED vs incomplete = ED) and centrally reviewed histology (World Health Organization [WHO] grade II vs III). Methods WHO grade II/NED patients received focal radiotherapy (RT) up to 59.4 Gy with 1.8 Gy/day. Grade III/NED received 4 courses of VEC (vincristine, etoposide, cyclophosphamide) after RT. ED patients received 1-4 VEC courses, second-look surgery, and 59.4 Gy followed by an 8-Gy boost in 2 fractions on still measurable residue. NED children aged 1-3 years with grade II tumors could receive 6 VEC courses alone. Results From January 2002 to December 2014, one hundred sixty consecutive children entered the protocol (median age, 4.9 y; males, 100). Follow-up was a median of 67 months. An infratentorial origin was identified in 110 cases. After surgery, 110 patients were NED, and 84 had grade III disease. Multiple resections were performed in 46/160 children (28.8%). A boost was given to 24/40 ED patients achieving progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) rates of 58.1% and 68.7%, respectively, in this poor prognosis subgroup. For the whole series, 5-year PFS and OS rates were 65.4% and 81.1%, with no toxic deaths. On multivariable analysis, NED status and grade II were favorable for OS, and for PFS grade II remained favorable. Conclusions In a multicenter collaboration, this trial accrued the highest number of patients published so far, and results are comparable to the best single-institution series. The RT boost, when feasible, seemed effective in improving prognosis. Even after multiple procedures, complete resection confirmed its prognostic strength, along with tumor grade. Biological parameters emerging in this series will be the object of future correlatives and reports.

Abstract

Bartholin gland cysts are one of the most common gynecologic problems. Around 2% of women suffer from these pathologies. Bartholin gland cyst are generally asymptomatic, but sometimes extremely painful to restrict physical activity. The treatment choice is related to the patient's age, the size of the cyst or abscess and relapses, but different approaches are possible. The aim of this study is to investigate the efficicacy and safety of the alcohol sclerotherapy versus the only aspiration to cure symptomatic cysts or abscesses of the Bartholin's gland.Between January 2002 and June 2004, 18 patients suffering from Bartholin symptomatic unilateral cysts or with abscess are selected. These patients have been divided into 2 groups and they have been treated with alcohol sclerotherapy or aspiration. The simple aspiration removes only the cyst fluid. The alcohol sclerotherapy allows to destroy the epithelial covering of the cyst by a coagulative necrosis and then a fibrosis which covers the cavity and prevents the reformation of liquid.Treatment has been satisfactory for all the patients, and treatment time has been shorter with alcohol sclerotherapy. None of the patients, in both groups, presented sexual dysfunctions or dyspareunia.Alcohol sclerotherapy might be an ideal and safe procedure in the treatment of the Bartholin's gland or abscesses with a low percentage of relapses.

Abstract

The effect of nifedipine on fetal-placental blood flow at 22-24 weeks in patients with pregnancy-induced hypertension (PIH) was evaluated. Twenty patients with PIH were submitted to the Doppler evaluation of fetal-placental perfusion at 22-24 weeks. The systo-diastolic (SID) ratio and the pulsatility index (PI) of uterine, umbilical and middle cerebral arteries and systemic blood pressure were recorded before and 7 days after nifedipine administration (10 mg/ per os 3 times/day until delivery). Statistical analysis was performed with paired and unpaired t-test and the two-tailed Fisher exact test. Nifedipine significantly (p0.05) decreased the mean systolic pressure in all patients (from 146 to 135 mmHg): 8 patients developed pre-eclampsia (PE) complicated by fetal growth restriction (FGR) (PE group), whilst the remaining were only affected by PIH (PIH group). The gestational age at delivery, neonatal birthweight and 1- and 5-min Apgar scores were significantly (p0.001) lower in PE than in PIH women. Nifedipine treatment significantly changed the PI and S/D ratio (mean +/- SEM) of the uterine (PI from 0.66 +/- 0.01 to 0.51 + 0.01; SID ratio: from 2.00 +/- 0.09 to 1.79 + 0.05) and umbilical (PI: from 1.55 +/- 0.04 to 1.40 +/- 0.02; S/D ratio: from 2.45 +/- 0.09 to 2.31+/- 0.09) arteries and the middle cerebral PI (from 1.45 +/- 0.03 to 1.61 +/- 0.01) artery only in PIH, but not in PE patients. Fetal-placental blood flow changes after nifedipine may early identify patients at risk of PE.

Abstract

We investigate the possibility to use ultrasound-guided aspiration and alcohol sclerosis in patients with endometrioma.Ten patients with endometriotic ovarian cysts, mean diameter70 mm, CA12535 UI, persistence of cyst after medical therapy and refusal of surgical therapy have been studied. The patients were submitted to ultrasound-guided aspiration of endometriomas. Fifty per cent of aspirated fluid was replaced with pure ethanol, which was left in situ for 10 to 20 minutes. No medical therapy was employed after aspiration and ethanol treatment.In 9 patients no recurrence was observed at ultrasound after 21.2+/-6.62 months of follow-up. In 1 case only, after 6 months, a recurrence of the endometrioma in the same site was observed.Ultrasound-guided alcoholic sclerotherapy of the endometriotic ovarian cysts is effective and safe. We speculate that this procedure could be indicated in patients refusing standard surgical therapy.

Abstract

An interesting case of pelvic actinomycosis with paculiar clinical manifestation is presented. A 42 years-old patient came to our emergency service for an abdominal pelvic pain and fever. Past history showed IUD in situ for over 15 years. The patient was submitted to a ultrasonographic scan and a complete hematological screening was performed. The diagnosis was of subacute abdomen, and an exploratory laparotomy was carried out. During laparotomy an atypical reactive tissue and a suppurative cavity were found. The histological finding of tissue biopsy showed pelvic actinomycosis. On the basis of these findings the conclusion is drawn that a better prevention of pelvic actinomycosis is necessary of its diffusion in the last years due to sexual habit changes.

Abstract

The aim of the study was to verify the validity of placement of a vena cava filter in patients with gynecologic cancer complicated by pulmonary embolism and progressive persistent hypercoagulability. The authors discuss two patients with pulmonary embolism. In this study, a gynecologic tumor was diagnosed, one presented endometrial carcinoma and the other ovarian papillary carcinoma, after the position of vena cava filter and treatment with urokinasi (2.800.000 UI/ml) it was possible to do surgery followed by radiation therapy in the first case and chemotherapy in the second. In these cases there are indications for the placement of a vena cava filter. This has enabled surgery and anticoagulation therapy and has prevented the movement of any other emboli, which were later dissolved by fibrinolytic agents, and the effectiveness result was the arrest of progressive hypercoagulability moved by tumor cell. The serious conditions that were related to prior embolism and to a persistent thrombotic state characterized by progressive hypercoagulability did not make it possible to perform surgery or any other type of therapy because of absolute contraindications. The decision to place the filter could thus become the first step towards subsequent improvements, that are also tied to the possibility of performing surgery for removing tumor, arrest of progressive hypercoagulability due to tumor cell, allow chemotherapy or radiation treatment.

Abstract

The aim of this study is to check whether there exists a difference in restitutio ad integrum of the uterus after myomectomy performed during Caesarean section and out of pregnancy.Two different groups are considered: Group A (n=8) that underwent myomectomy during Caesarean section; Group B (n=10) in which myomectomy was performed out of pregnancy. All patients were followed with serial scan evaluations.The results showed a much more complete and faster absorption of hyperplasia and hypertrophy surrounding fibroid nodules when myomectomy was performed during Caesarean section.A later pregnancy in patients who underwent myomectomy during Caesarean section might have a favourable outcome, possibly reaching a term gestation and vaginal delivery.

Abstract

The purpose of this retrospective study is to underline the indications for the use of systemic methotrexate (MTX) in tubal pregnancies.One hundred and four (n=104) consecutive women were treated in our Department for tubal pregnancy. The database analysis showed that after careful respect for inclusion criteria, the treatment chosen was the intravenous administration of MTX in 68 patients, whereas laparoscopy constituted the primary treatment in 36 patients. A single dose of MTX was intravenously administered, diluted in saline solution, with a dosage of 50 mg/m2 of body surface. Close serum beta-hCG monitoring was performed, and in the case of a short fall, a 2nd dose of methotrexate was submitted.The overall success rate of MTX treatment was 91%; the 2nd dose of MTX was used in 12% of patients, whereas in only 6 out of 68 patients included in the medical treatment group a surgical approach for suspected tubal rupture was necessary.Treatment with methotrexate is effective and safe in the presence of these criteria: patient hemodynamically stable, absence of tubal rupture sign and hemoperitoneum, an adnexal mass with a diameteror = 5 cm, an amenorrheaor = 6 weeks and HCG levelsor = 10,000 mIU/ml. Laparoscopy is indicated in diagnostic uncertainty, when MTX is not suggested, when adnexal mass is5 cm, or in patients in which beta-hCG levels was10,000 mIU/ml.
