Febrile neutropenia is associated with a worse prognosis. Granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) may be given prophylactically before chemotherapy in selected cases or as adjuvant therapy in febrile neutropenia. G-CSF administration may be associated with several side effects, including skin manifestation. More rarely, G-CSF administration may induce acute febrile neutrophilic dermatosis is which known as a Sweet syndrome. Case Presentation: A 63-year-old man with nasopharyngeal cancer stage III on chemotherapy and radiotherapy came to our emergency department with a chief complaint of fever, coughing, and shortness of breath. He was diagnosed with community-acquired pneumonia and febrile neutropenia. His white blood cell (WBC) count was 200/mm3 . On the third day of hospitalization and G-CSF administration, he developed a rash and had skin desquamation mainly on his head including the scalp, face, lips, upper trunk, arms, and the surface of both hands. His follow-up laboratory result was WBC 8300/mm3 with a neutrophil count of 87%. Presumable Sweet syndrome diagnosis with differential diagnosis of other drug eruption reactions was made. Systemic and topical were administered, and G-CSF was stopped. Significant improvement was observed. Conclusions: G-CSF administration in febrile neutropenic cancer is generally safe; however, several adverse events may occur. Cutaneous adverse events following G-CSF administration should be recognized and treated accordingly. Sweet syndrome is rare but should be recognized as a possible G-CSF-induced drug skin complication.","PeriodicalId":13489,"journal":{"name":"Indonesian Journal of Cancer","volume":"10 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-09-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"74737234","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, several modalities have been proposed to substitute Ventriculography. This study aimed to find out whether Ventriculography can still be considered the gold standard to monitor and detect cardiotoxicity before, during, and after administration of the chemotherapy and compare Ventriculography with Cardiac Magnetic Resonance (CMR) and Echocardiography (Echo).Methods: A literature review was done by searching original literature with keyword combinations on PubMed, Cochrane, and ClinicalKey in the past five years (2016–2021) with language restrictions only in English. Of 1,381 pieces of literature, five pieces are included to review in this study. Results: Ventriculography has high sensitivity and specificity in monitoring and detecting cardiotoxicity. Other modalities are CMR and Echo. CMR is more accurate although it is costly whilst Echo has high interobserver variability. Ventriculography and CMR have not shown interchangeable results. The literature also shows that Ventriculography could evaluate cardiotoxicity by assessing diastolic function. Conclusions: Ventriculography can still be used as the gold standard for monitoring cardiac function and detecting cardiotoxicity at an affordable price and with acceptable side effects.

The study aims to find the factors that play the most role in influencing the behavior of women with breast cancer as well as dig deeper into the things behind the patient in making decisions that have an impact on delayed diagnosis. Methods: The study uses an analytical observational design with quantitative and qualitative mixed methods. Collecting data was conducted from April until June 2021 on 76 women with breast cancer at Baladhika Husada Hospital Jember based on classification into case and control groups. The sampling method used purposive sampling and the Lemeshow formula. Results: The results showed the factor that dominates the occurrence of delayed diagnosis is alternative medicine (p = 0.013; OR 11.03). Based on the results of the study, patients who undergo alternative medicine are 11 times more at risk of delayed diagnosis of breast cancer compared to patients who do not undergo alternative treatment.Conclusions: The patient’s background in choosing alternative medicine is supported by various reasons including concerns about medical treatment methods, concerns about nominal medical costs, and negative information from the surrounding. Thus, it can be concluded that the dominant factor affecting the delay in the diagnosis of women with breast cancer is alternative medicine.","PeriodicalId":13489,"journal":{"name":"Indonesian Journal of Cancer","volume":"30 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-09-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"89036172","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Stage I seminoma may be treated with orchiectomy alone while the remaining 15% to 20% may have a relapse if they receive no additional treatment during the five-year surveillance. Most recurrences occur within the first 2 years after diagnosis, and the location of the recurrence is typically in the retroperitoneum. This article aims to share the experience in the management of testicular seminoma recurrence in a multidisciplinary approach.Case Presentation: We are reporting a case of a 26-year-old male with a growing mass at the right scrotum just two months after right radical orchidectomy. This patient was previously treated with a stage I seminoma and underwent surveillance. Tumor debulking and right inguinoscrotal reconstruction using a pedicled anterolateral thigh (ALT) flap were done through collaborative surgery between urology and plastic surgery. However, according to National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN), with the relapsed mass, this patient can be classified as having a stage III seminoma and considered as having a good-risk disease due to no evidence of non-pulmonary visceral metastasis. With the risk of bleomycin causing lung fibrosis, four cycles of etoposide and cisplatin can be considered the chemotherapy regimens for this patient. Evaluation after chemotherapy should be done by checking tumor markers and imaging studies.Conclusions: The reappearance of testicular seminoma in this patient unexpectedly occurred quite in a short period, that is in two months after surgery. Immediate multidisciplinary intervention by a urologist and plastic surgeon was done through tumor debulking with a wide incision margin and ALT flap reconstruction. Unfortunately, however, after the second month of follow-up, there was a bulging mass growing beneath the flap which needed further evaluation with ultrasonography to confirm the possibility of tumor recurrence or seroma. If tumor recurrence is confirmed, chemotherapy should be scheduled as soon as possible.","PeriodicalId":13489,"journal":{"name":"Indonesian Journal of Cancer","volume":"47 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-09-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90910598","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Medical treatment is often sought due to complications that arise from the polyps. PJS polyps tend to be accompanied by freckling or hyperpigmentation on the lips, buccal mucosa, vulva, fingers, and toes. PJS is also associated with an increased risk for colorectal or extraintestinal tumors. Case Presentation: A 24-year-old female complained about a lump in her abdomen and constipation. The physical examination found hyperpigmentation on the lips and a hard and mobile mass on the left quadrant abdomen. We found a descending-sigmoid colon tumor with multiple polyps on all colon mucous and performed total colectomy and ileorectal anastomosis on the laparotomy operation. Two months later, Esophagogastroduodenoscopy revealed multiple polyps on Duodenum 1, II, and gaster.

Radiotherapy medical radiation workers can be exposed to gamma radiation related to their daily work. The comet assay is a sensitive method for analyzing DNA damage, especially SSBs. This study explores DNA damage in medical radiation workers’ peripheral blood lymphocytes as an adaptive response using the comet assay.Methods: Blood samples were obtained from four radiotherapy medical radiation workers as a case study (MRW) and two non-medical radiation workers as controls, and then irradiated with various doses of 0, 1, 1.5, and 2 Gy. Lymphocytes were isolated by histopaque and processed by comet assay on the slide under alkaline conditions. The imaging results were analyzed using the Casplab_1.2.3b2 software. The comet assay parameters observed were Tail Length (TL), % Tail DNA (T.DNA), Tail Moment (TM), and Olive Tail Moment (OTM). The one-way ANOVA method was used to analyze statistically between treatment groups. Results: Based on the study results, an increase in TL, T.DNA, TM, and OTM values in all samples was directly proportional to the increase in radiation dose. However, there was no significant difference (P > 0.05) between the MRW group and the control group on each parameter of the comet assay.Conclusions: From this study, it can be concluded that the level of DNA damage of lymphocyte cells as part of the adaptive response in the MRW and control groups was relatively similar after exposure at doses of 0, 1, 1.5, and 2 Gy.","PeriodicalId":13489,"journal":{"name":"Indonesian Journal of Cancer","volume":"35 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-06-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"79242813","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study aimed to find and describe the profile of NPC patients who undergo radiotherapy at Dr. Hasan Sadikin General Hospital, Bandung.Methods: This study was a descriptive study conducted at the Department of Radiology of Dr. Hasan Sadikin General Hospital, Bandung. This study employed a total sampling method and was done by observing patients’ status/medical records from January 1, 2018, to December 31, 2019, which was registered based on the Hospital-Based Cancer Registry (HBCR). The inclusion criteria were all patients diagnosed with NPC and undergone radiotherapy.Results: There were 274 records (19.74%) included as NPC from 1,388 records. This cancer was more frequent in men (70.4%), in the age group of 45–54 years (35.0%), non-active smokers (58.8%), entrepreneurs (23.0%), and those who came from West Priangan (36.1%). The most common chief complaint was an enlargement of neck lymph nodes (55.1%) at stage IVB (42.8%). Histopathological findings were dominated by undifferentiated squamous cell carcinoma (WHO III) (74.4%). Most of the patients were treated with chemoradiation (64.3%).Conclusions: NPC could happen to anyone with different background. This study found it was more frequent in men than women (2.3:1), in the fourth and fifth decade of life, in entrepreneurs followed by housewives, and even in non-active smokers. It also could happen in children to the elderly.
