Interstitial brachytherapy for internal mammary node in breast cancer: A case report.
This case study reports the feasibility, safety, and efficacy of interstitial brachytherapy for internal mammary nodal recurrence in a 68-year-old woman with triple-negative breast cancer. The patient had previously undergone mastectomy followed by chemotherapy and radiotherapy. However, an internal mammary node was discovered during a routine follow-up a year later, which was confirmed as metastatic carcinoma by fine needle aspiration, with no other metastatic lesions. The patient underwent interstitial brachytherapy under ultrasound and computed tomography (CT) guidance, with a prescribed dose of 20 Gray in one fraction. Follow-up CT scan imaging over a 2-year period of treatment showed a complete resolution of internal mammary node. Therefore, brachytherapy may be considered a potential treatment option for cases of isolated internal mammary node recurrence in breast cancer.
期刊介绍:
The “Journal of Contemporary Brachytherapy” is an international and multidisciplinary journal that will publish papers of original research as well as reviews of articles. Main subjects of the journal include: clinical brachytherapy, combined modality treatment, advances in radiobiology, hyperthermia and tumour biology, as well as physical aspects relevant to brachytherapy, particularly in the field of imaging, dosimetry and radiation therapy planning. Original contributions will include experimental studies of combined modality treatment, tumor sensitization and normal tissue protection, molecular radiation biology, and clinical investigations of cancer treatment in brachytherapy. Another field of interest will be the educational part of the journal.
